43 Stellar Gifts for Grandpa That Are Fun and Original

Gramps, Grandpa, Granddad, Pawpaw, Pops, or Poppy—whatever name you call your grandpa, it’s sure to be done with the highest notes of love and affection. And while it’s not always easy to put into words exactly how important he is to you, gifts for grandpa are a great way to show you care. But for some reason, grandpas are notoriously hard to shop for—they seem to have everything, and always insist they don’t want a gift, so what are you supposed to do?

The good news is, grandparents are beautiful individuals with a wide breadth of interests that can be tapped into to help identify the perfect gift. Sure, sentimental gifts like photos, journals, or personalized jewelry are always good options, but don’t be afraid to think outside the “traditional” when it comes to buying for grandpa. For instance, if your granddad is an avid golfer, a fisherman, or even a techie, consider those hobbies when you start your shopping. Or, if he loves cooking, can’t start his day without coffee, or can’t end a night without a nightcap, you may want to look for gifts that widen his culinary experiences.

So regardless of whether you’re shopping for a new grandpa, a homebody, an outdoorsman, or a music-lover, we’ve got the best gifts for grandpa across a variety of categories (and while you’re at it, check out the best gifts for men, gifts for grandma, gifts for mom, and beyond!)
