Gift for my parents?

They're coming for 10 days to watch DD while DH and I go abroad. And I recently dredged up stuff about travel inequality within my family, so I'm feeling guilty. After they see us they're driving up to Canada, stopping in VT. Does paying for a hotel one night sound like a good gift?

I think that sounds nice - it's timely and useful.

I'd pay for a hotel night or two and a nice dinner.

Watching your DD for 10 days is really nice of them.

It is awesome of them, and very much what they do/have done for all their kids. DD is going to have a blast

This.

If you know where they are stopping in Vermont maybe find a nicer than they would pick hotel and a GC for a nearby restaurant?

I assume you are leaving $ for them to do fun stuff with DD?
