The Perfect Gift Idea for Grandchildren:

 

The perfect gift idea for grandparents to give their grandchildren isn’t that hard to figure out!  Depending on the age of the grandchild, the perfect gift idea is usually the same: have some dedicated time to spend with your grandson or granddaughter. 

-with a newborn baby: the only thing they really need is love. For grandma and grandpa to simply sit and hold and watch the face of a newborn baby is enough.  The little hands, the gentle baby sounds, the soft skin are gift enough – and a great bonding time.  A picture of this magical time will be treasured for years to come – for grandparents or grandchild!

-with a one year old: the perfect gift grandparents can give may well be a little floor time – with the grandchild, of course! A one year old is so curious and active and there is no better way to understand and enjoy a one-year old’s actions than to get on the floor and be a participant. 

Grandma Memories –“Do You Love It?”

I hope every grandma cherishes her grandma memories like I do.  I keep a note pad of the cutest things our first grandson is saying, or doing.  And it’s a laugh out loud (LOL) moment when I go back and reread those special grandma memories. 

Our 20 month old has been giving us the thumbs up on his favorite things that he loves for 8 months now.  When he really likes something, he squeezes his fists and gives us the biggest grin possible to communicate, “I love it” and then he holds that pose to reinforce the “love”.   So with a new treat, or a new activity, we’re always asking, “Do you love it?”  And I can tell you he loves pizza, little friends around his own age, popsicles, and flowers.  These are a few of his favorite things! 

How to Find the Perfect Newborn Baby Gift

The occasion of a newborn baby calls for a gift that is special and memorable.  Have you ever been to a baby shower with a gift you thought was that unique and special gift, only to find that someone else came with the same or similar gift?  Did you wish you had shopped a boutique store rather than a national chain store – but who has the time!
