Thoughtful Gifts For Grandparents

The bond of a grandparent and grandchild is a special one, and as our reliance on grandparents for childcare increases, that bond is only set to grow stronger. But as most grandparents have everything they could possibly need and want, sometimes finding them a gift that is both thoughtful and practical can be difficult. If you’re struggling to get your grandparents a gift, here are some of our favourite thoughtful things.

A Photobook

Grandparents love showing off to their friends about their grandkids and being able to display the photos all in one place is the ideal gift. A lovingly curated book of your favourite photos is sure to be treasured. Choose from images of you and your grandparents, or perhaps an album of photos of your year, you can even include photos from when they were younger too.

There are so many companies that use apps making it even easier to use your favourite snaps. And don’t forget to edit your images for a professional looking finish.

National Trust Membership

If you and your grandparents like days out, why not get them a National Trust Membership? With many of the places having amazing cafes and gift shops, your grandparents will love going out to explore. Whether it’s somewhere close by that can become their local spot for coffee and cake, or perhaps they’re heading off for a long weekend away and looking for things to see and do.

With over 500 places to choose from, they’ll never be short of places to visit.

Comfy Slippers

Who doesn’t like comfy slippers? Choose a pair that provide extra comfort and support whilst also being cosy. Specialist companies like Mobility Solutions have a whole host of designs perfect for keeping your grandparents feet nice and warm. You could even get them a pair of bed socks for those cold winter nights too.

Monthly Flowers

Bouquets of flowers add a touch of luxury to any home. Subscribe to a flower delivery service and have fresh flowers sent to your grandparents throughout the year. They’ll love the arrival of fresh-cut flowers, and as each bouquet is different, the scents will change too. Choose bouquets that have some of their favourite flowers in as scents stimulate memories.

Robot Vacuum Cleaner

Let your grandparents put their feet up and let a robot vacuum cleaner do the dirty work. If your grandparents have it all, but also like to have the latest tech – they’ll love these nifty little machines.

Perhaps they aren’t as mobile as they used to be, or after decades of vacuuming they just want a break, they will really appreciate receiving this gift – and will have more time to spend with their grandchildren!

The truth is grandparents aren’t really bothered about gifts. Spending time with the family is often their most treasured present. So, why not give the gift of time? Set aside time each week to see them, call them, or even write them a letter.
