Because the difference between a student and a parent is often a matter of age and not mentality, we've included some generally inexpensive gifts that fit the bill for either. Would you enjoy unwrapping these gifts during the holidays? If not, maybe someone you know would! 

An office or bedroom's aesthetic is more adult-like when it includes a bit of foliage. But no one has enough time to keep those things watered with sufficient sunlight unless you plan for something a little more drought resistant and less likely to wilt with no sunlight. Hello Legos. Dad, mom, and young adults love building with these colorful bricks, which opens the possibility of creating something functional too. These lego sets include a DIY succulent garden or the perfect Bonsai Tree.

For the younger crowd, we have some news for you. Your parents are on TikTok. I know, I know, they follow you everywhere. But here's the good news, they aren't posting any content and only watch other people (at least we hope). I can guarantee we've all seen someone use a plaster kit for fun and creative replicas of their hands or whatever they're holding, so it's the perfect opportunity to have some fun and throw an extra couple of digits in the mix, literally.

This kit includes everything you need to get creative and an activity on the day they receive it. Make the mold and tune into some holiday movies while it cures. The night ends with a forever art piece to commerate the day.

And in the morning, I'm making waffles! Everyone does breakfast for dinner, right? What about breakfast for lunch?
Forget it, let's do dessert all day. Hear me out. Make mini waffles with the mini maker since they are basically giant cookies anyway. Then, make some ice cream with the cream roller plate, adding all of the things you'd love in your frosty goodness, and finally, drizzle it with some sparkling (sparkly) real maple syrup. Lastly, stuff it in your mouth and continue the day!
