Grandparent’s Day will be celebrated this year on Sunday, September 8. And while you may have honored your parents on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day earlier this summer, if you have children you don’t want to let Grandparent’s Day go unnoticed.
Grandparent’s Day is especially sweet when you have small children and your parents are new grandparents. But that doesn’t meant that older kids are off the hook! Grandparent’s Day is also a perfect occasion for teenagers or older children to show that they still value the relationship with their grandparents.
Check out these great gift ideas for grandparents:
Personalized and Engravable Gifts
Get personal and present the grandparents in your life with an engravable gift. From whimsical to religious and more, there are a variety of options to choose from. Some of our favorites include an engravable ice cream bucket that holds an individual pint of ice cream, classy brass pens that can be engraved with a name or message, and a practical nickel-plated pill box that bears your loved one’s name.
Of-the-Month Club Membership
Show your …
Of-the-month clubs make great gifts because they just keep on giving! Whether you choose delivery every single month, bi-montly, or once every three months, your loved one will be reminded of – and enjoy – your gift all year long.
From fruit to pizza and wine to coffee, there is an of-the-month club membership for everyone!
Grandparents both young and old understand the benefits of today’s newest technologies. From taking photos and videos to staying in touch with grandchildren via online video chat, the older generation is keeping up with the times!
Have a grandparent that is already tech-saavy? Consider accessories for their gadgets. Covers for tablets and iPads are great and many can be personalized.
Taking the plunge and helping a grandparent ease into technology? How-to guides for seniors make a great gift. Web cams for desktop computers will allow them to chat with family and friends all over the country!
Gift baskets
Magazine subscription
Magazine subscriptions – both traditional or digital – are a great gift because you can buy one for sharing or two for each individual (one for her, one for him!) This is also a great choice because, like the of-the-month clubs mentioned above, delivery is usually monthly or bi-monthly, making the gift last all year long!
Retired and on the go grandparents will love a subscription to a travel or RVing magazine. Homebodies will enjoy XXXX. Grandparents who are trying to eat well as they age may enjoy a subscription to Cooking Light magazine.
