What should I get my parents for Christmas?

My parents work really hard and I love them so much! Every year they get me a Christmas gift that I really appreciate and this year I wanted to get a gift for them, but I’ve never been really good with getting people gifts. I’m only a kid/teen and I help tutor and teach summer camps so I have only a little bit of money. Only enough to spend about 50 on each of them. My dad really likes music, especially jazz. If I were rich I would’ve gotten him that new Roli Blocks thing but I definitely can’t afford it. He likes to play the piano, saxophone, flute, marimba, basically any instrument he can find. He wants an alto flute but once again can’t afford that and I doubt I could get my mom and brothers to pitch in. What should I get him? My mom. Tbh she doesn’t really have that many interest. She’s been studying Spanish and wants to become fluent. She’s also wanted this designer purse for a while but I definitely couldn’t afford that. She likes fashion and to go shopping and she really wants to travel. What Can I get them?!?!? Please help me!!!!

    Don't fall for the consumerism trap. Parents don't want expensive gifts from their kids. They prefer something that you have thought about. Things like a photo album that you have decorated and put some good family photo's in, with notes underneath is a good book of memories, and shows thought.

    Flowers are always good at this time too, and often forgotten.

    Whatever you do - think personal rather than something they've said they wanted - because they are saving for that themselves - or even worse - may have bought it for each other!

    I know it seems like kind of a cop-out, but consider gift cards that will allow them to pick the music or fashion item they would most like. You can either get, say, an iTunes gift card for music or, better yet, an all-purpose gift card like Amazon or Visa that will allow them to have the fun of figuring out how to spend it. Put it in a Christmas card, and write a little note saying how much you appreciate them and that you hope they will buy themselves something they really enjoy.

    If you know how to cook, surprise them with a pre-Christmas breakfast or dinner that's special.

    Maybe go to a michaels store and make them something.
