The Frame TV

Best for moms with Pinterest-worthy homes

Here's the thing about big-screen televisions: They're an eyesore. For the mom who appreciates aesthetics, Samsung's The Frame is here to make her day. The ultra flat screen smart TV looks like any other wall art when not in use, seamlessly blending into the decor and thus creating a more well-appointed space.

A stemless wine glass chiller

Best for moms who are serious about wine

Enjoying white wine or rosé can be a time-sensitive experience — a poured glass doesn't stay chilled for long, and the flavor profile gets all wonky. The VoChill stemless wine glass chiller is a genius solution that any regular vino drinker would use all the time. Once the base chills in the freezer, it keeps drinks cold for up to an hour. It also doubles as a coaster.

An Apple Watch Series 11

Best for moms who never look at their phones

So she left her phone in her purse all day... again. Whether it's a workout class, another weekly appointment, or just a long walk, the newest Apple Watch is a great way to stay connected with moms who are always jetting off. It lasts nearly 24 hours on one charge, receives iMessages and calls, and doubles as an in-depth fitness tracker with several crucial health sensors.

A weighted sleep mask

Best for deep beauty sleep

Looking for stocking stuffers mom will love? The Nodpod is a viral weighted sleep mask full of microbeads, creating ever-so-light pressure said to help quiet the mind while fully blocking out light. It can attach in the back or lie flat on her face if she hates the feeling of lying on a head strap. If you see a Nodpod in stock, grab it ASAP — these sell out constantly.

The Kindle Paperwhite

Best for moms big on reading

The classic Kindle Paperwhite is the best Kindle in our eyes, and is an excellent gift for any insatiable reader. Even if she won't fully give up turning physical pages, there are times when it'd just be more handy to have digital access to thousands of titles — when traveling, for example. You could gift her a Kindle Unlimited subscription, too, though Mashable's Kindle expert is obsessed with the free options on Libby.

The Peas in a Pod birthstone bracelet

Best if you're besties with mom or grandma

This is an adorable gift for a mom of multiple kids, an inseparable multi-generational trio, or whoever she's ultra close with. Prices start at $88 for two stones, though you can add up to six — choose between sterling silver or gold-plated sterling silver. The holiday sale should land you 30% off, too.

The Ninja Crispi

Best for moms always eating on the fly

Every busy mom should have an air fryer — they're way faster than waiting for the oven to preheat, and of course, achieve coveted crispiness without deep frying in oil. Mashable's favorite is the Ninja Crispi, which air fries directly in a grab-and-go glass container (just add a lid). Pro tip: The SharkNinja website has way more cute color options than Amazon.

A Skylight Digital Calendar

Best for moms with hectic schedules

A digital calendar will be a game-changer for the keeper of the family's schedule: Appointments, practices, chore charts... the list goes on. She can hang it in the kitchen and see everything happening for the week, month, and year, with the option to assign events to family members. She'll finally have an assistant to rely on and say, "I don't know, check the Skylight."

A smart bird feeder

Best group gift

Looking to pool your resources with your siblings to buy an extra-special present? The famous Bird Buddy is a smart bird feeder that snaps pictures of backyard visitors and sends them straight to mom's phone. We've tested and gifted this device, and we think it's one of the best gifts for mom for Christmas 2025.

A FabFitFun gift card

Best for moms who love to try new products

Perhaps you know that Mom lives for new beauty or fitness or decor goodies, but aren't sure what to pick from there. Why not grab her a FabFitFun gift card and let her choose a few premium on-trend items herself? Each seasonal box includes up to $350 worth of full-sized products for $80. The winter box options include high-end skincare, fancy serving trays and baking dishes, luxury PJs, a designer purse, and more.

A temperature-controlled mug

Best for tea connoisseurs

Instead of gifting yet another mug that'll collect dust, try the Ember Mug 2 — it'll become her new go-to. It's a temperature-controlled smart mug that keeps drinks at her desired temperature (120 through 145 degrees Fahrenheit), which she can choose in the app. Oh, and its charger doubles as a coaster.

Hardside luggage

Best for moms who pack way too much

Moms overpack simply because they are the queens of being prepared, and that's that. The 21-inch Freeform spinner suitcase by Samsonite has a durable shell that expands to squeeze the necessities in (without going over those annoying carry-on size requirements). Choose from 12 colors to find one that best fits your mom's style.

The Shark CryoGlow LED face mask

Best beauty tech gift

We think the Mashable Choice Award-winning Shark CryoGlow is the best LED mask you can buy right now. It provides more complete coverage than other top face masks from OmniLux or CurrentBody — not only because it has more bulbs, but because every single bulb can emit red light, blue light, or near-infrared light. She can toggle between anti-aging and anti-blemish settings on the remote's screen. The cooling under-eye pads complete this luxurious self-care step.

A countertop electric composter

Best for moms who have a garden

Instead of letting tossed food stink up the kitchen trash can, she can put just about any food scrap or old leftovers (including meat and dairy) into the Food Cycler, where it'll silently convert scraps to a soil-like substance that she can use to fertilize her garden. Because it's minimizing her food waste, think of it as an eco-friendly gift.

Best for moms with long locks

She spent years putting you before her hair care routine. Now, you can gift her a salon-level blowout every time she washes her hair.

Five precise styling attachments are included, including a diffusor and flyaway tool.

The Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Kettle

Best for pour-over coffee fans

Some people just *know* that pour-over coffee reigns supreme and that tea tastes better when the water is just the right temperature. If your mom is a part of this club, get her this stylish, minimalist kettle. It has temperature control from 135 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit and will look great in her kitchen.

Best alternative to short-lived fresh flowers

Flowers that she doesn't have to throw out in a couple of weeks? Groundbreaking.

Gift it to her already built, or build it together if she's into that.

A Philips Hue starter kit

Best for keeping her home cozy

This particular kit contains a hub and four white Philips Hue bulbs, which Mom can control via the mobile app or just talking to her go-to smart assistant (Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Homekit).

Nike Vaporfly running shoes

Best for moms dying for new running shoes

These shoes are quite controversial-- they’ve been banned by some race governing bodies for their carbon fiber plate technology in the soles of the shoe. These shoes can offer the wearer an extra boost to their stride while they run. Plus, they look pretty cool while doing all of that, too.

A Yeti Rambler tumbler

Best for moms on the go

A portable photo printer

Best for moms who document everything

A photo printer was one of the most searched gift items from Google's Holiday 100 list, and it'd make a great gift for the mom who can't help but capture every single special moment.

Sony noise-cancelling headphones

Some nice hand cream

Best for any mom

You really can’t go wrong with a tube of L'Occitane hand cream — especially if Mom is regularly complaining about dry hands or cuticles. This fast-absorbing shea butter cream is one of the best we’ve found and will help her hands remain healthy and moisturized, even in the bitter cold.

The Buffy Cloud Comforter

Best for moms who sleep hot

We can personally confirm that Buffy's Cloud Comforter lives up to the name.
