Gifts for Grandkids That Are Meaningful, Not Just Trendy
Buying gifts for the grandkids can be hard! My mother didn’t even try; she just sent me money and told me to get them something good, lol. Now it’s my turn to struggle. It’s so easy to get swept up in the latest toys or gadgets that will be forgotten by spring. But when it comes to giving gifts to our grandkids, the ones that last, the ones that mean something, are the real treasures. If you’re like me and hoping to give something a bit more meaningful, this post is for you.
There’s Nothing Better Than Grandkids!
I have loved featuring my grandbabies on the blog. It was so fun scrolling through old posts and coming across their debuts on the blog. They were helping me out with AARP-sponsored posts.
They are growing up on me way too fast, and it is harder to get quality time with them because of their busy schedules.
