"Managing Time" Gift Ideas
These gift ideas are perfect for moms who need a little help staying on schedule without confronting them about their time management concerns. It's a win-win. =)
A watch to help her keep on schedule.
Pick a watch that is attractive and easy to see. A large digital face watch may work better if she has vision issues. If she is tech-savvy, you could also get her a smartwatch.

A phone to help her manage her texts, emails, and schedule.
Pick a phone that is easy to use. If she has health issues, I find that an iPhone works best. If you want more ideas on other gifts for elderly parents, check out my post: The Best Gift Ideas For Elderly Parents
A paper planner with pockets to help her keep those tasks in order.
If digital product gifts are not your mom's favorite, try getting her a planner. Getting a weekly planner at a glance works nicely, and adding a little feminine touch with flowers or her favorite color will show her how much you care. As an additional surprise, write in all the birthdays for the immediate family in the planner and other yearly traditions she does with your family.

A set of grip hangers with a new blouse on each hanger.
And there are many things in a closet, like baskets, hangers, and drawer organizers (Affiliate Link), that you can give your mom. Adding items that she needs will add some flare to your gift. I would stay away from undergarments, though. =)

A first aid kit to store in her car when she needs it.
A first aid kit is convenient if she travels by herself. Find one small enough to store in the glove compartment or console. If you want to get her a larger one, it should be contained so she can keep it in the car's trunk (Affiliate Link).

The glove compartment and trunk organization
You can organize various things in the car, especially in the glove compartment. The trunk (Affiliate Link) and the glove compartment may need attention. Below are some items I found on Amazon (affiliate).
Depending on the size of the glove compartment, some things are flat, and some are made of hard plastic.

For the trunk (Affiliate Link) organizers, measure the trunk (Affiliate Link) size to see what size you need. Some are very large and may not fit. There are ones that attach to the seat and others that are freestanding. I like ones with a zipper on top just in case it moves around; the items will not fall out.

A pot with various herbs so she can use them for cooking.
Indoor or outdoor gardening is fun and relaxing. She can show off her green thumb. Stands that can hold her favorite herbs and plants are a lovely focal point in a sunroom or porch.

A gardening tool kit and a bag to carry them in.
I find it handy to have a place to store all the gardening items in a single location. So, something like this would work. If you are looking to do some more affordable garden shopping for your mom, check out how we created our shed on a shoestring. Maybe you can find ideas on what to buy to organize your mom's gardening area.

"Saving Money" Organizing Gift Ideas
The following section is about gifts to help moms manage and save their money more effectively.
A coupon organizer with dividers to help her organize her money-saving coupons.
Pick one with many sections to help her organize the coupons better. She can also use one for going out if she doesn't cook as much. Your mom can have a section for breakfast, one for lunch, and one for dinner. She could also have a part for take-out coupons. It is best to pick coupon organizers that will fit in the purse.

A menu or meal planning organizer with pockets to hold recipes or take-out menus.
Another gift option is for you to get her a menu or meal-planning organizer. It will make it easy for her to find things she may be looking for every week. They can be wall mounts, paper planners, or dry-erase. Ask them how they may prefer to write up their weekly meal plan.

A financial organizer with pockets to manage all the bills that come in.

Taking Care of Herself Gift Ideas
After she has organized her life (with your help), she can take care of herself with one or two of these unique activities. Pick one or two of these tasks and purchase items for gifts that will help her make the exercise more fun. It could be buying her a new yoga mat
if she likes yoga. A new journal (Affiliate Link)
to help her write her memoirs. Bath cushions
or bath salts
are her favorite ways to soak in the tub. Whichever product you choose to give, wrap it in a beautiful package so she understands what you want her to do with the product.

I have one of those coupon organizers and use it all the time. I don't find as many paper coupons as I used to, but I still like having a place to put the ones I know I will use.
