My Grandma is 80 and likes new 'gadgets'. Trying to think of something fun to get her.

I got my parents tickets to the Doo Wop Show at the Beacon Theatre in June.

Does she have a digital picture frame with pics of the grandkids? Especially one of the ones that can be updated remotely. Some of them pull pics off of an on-line site, so you can update pics for her.

Thanks everyone, these are all very helpful.

King sized electric blanket. Hope she can work it, she's not into gadgets and doesn't even have a cell phone.Chat Icon

If she likes gadgets you could get her an electronic vacuum (forgot the name). My aunt bought my grandma one last Christmas and she gets a kick out of it!

My MIL would LOVE this! Do you have a specific one or brand? I'm definitely going to look into this.

We recently bought my 87 yr old MIL a kindle and she loves it. She pays card games on it and reads.

My grandma passed away last year but I always made a calendar with family pics. She loved music too so one year we got her a cd player for her kitchen.

I don't personally have one (I gave my mom one with a memory stick that I update once in a while), but this one has a lot of good reviews on Amazon.

Here is the link to Amazon's wireless picture frames:

ETA: Pandigital went out of business, so I would advise against getting one of their frames.
