Gifts for Grandparents
While seniors in general tend to appreciate intangible or disposable gifts rather than heirlooms which will clutter the home, grandparents lean on the side of the thoughtful keepsake, with homemade Christmas gifts a perennial favorite. Gift ideas for grandparents include:- Photos and photo mosaics: a gift that incorporates photos of grandchildren and loved ones is a great idea for a grandparent

- Handmade ornaments or decorations: Especially beloved when given by younger grandchildren, handmade ornaments are easy to store and don't take up much room.
- Weekly floral deliveries or visits from grandchildren: Give the grandkids an excuse to spend some time with grandparents by making a weekly or monthly appointment to come visit.
- Holidays and vacations with grandchildren and extended family: The best gift you can give is your time.
