Family Portrait

• If your parents have been bugging you and your siblings about getting the entire family together for a portrait, this would be a perfect opportunity to do. Ambush your unsuspecting parents at their home with all of the siblings, grandchildren, a photographer and stylist. Have the stylist do your mom's hair and makeup so that she feels like the star of the show. If your parents have a large backyard, take the picture outside, or you can take a nice picture inside in a formal dining room or living room area.
  
  

Trip of a Lifetime

• Perhaps your parents have been dreaming of going back to Italy since their honeymoon, or have been trying to save up for an Australian adventure. If you have siblings, pool your resources together and present your parents with an all-inclusive ultimate vacation to their desired destination. This may be their last big trip together and it will provide them with wonderful memories for years to come.
  
  

Maid Services

• For older or younger parents, maid service would be much appreciated. Give parents a break, and surprise them with weekly maid service for six months or a year. This gift is ideal for young parents who run themselves ragged trying to clean the house and take care of their children at the same time.
  
  

Spa Day

• Offer to babysit for young parents and send them to the spa to get pampered for a day. This much-needed gift gives parents an opportunity to de-stress and recharge their batteries. For older parents as well, a spa day would be a perfect chance for them to relax and spend time with just each other. Although dads might never have gone to a spa themselves, they may be pleasantly surprised at the services offered exclusively for men.
