This enchanting, mastered book is excellent for new grandmas and grandpas. It captures the heart and mind of grandparents and grandchildren with its fun and educational features that graces its pages.
Also features many fun craft activities that will entertain and educate your grandchild for hours! 🙂
On page 106, the book offers materials needed and directions to make edible playdough, how awesome is that?! Kids absolutely love playdough! The recipe is so easy to make and more importantly, very EASY to clean up. This is one recipe that I will be sharing with my grandson when he gets a few years older. More edible recipes include; mini pizzas and homemade marshmallows. 🙂
The Simple Joys of Grandparenting even has pages where you can record special memories , activities, and events. Grandparents can also write down their grandchildren’s first sayings and words.
For Example…Just this past weekend my 2 year old grandson said his first whole sentence for me. He asked where our cat was, “Where’s Jesse At”? He asked, and that put a great big smile on my face for the rest of the day! 🙂 My daughter-in-law said that wasn’t his first full sentence, he’s been doing a lot more talking that Grandma and Grandpa don’t know about. LOL Birthdays and various dates can also be recorded. I really LOVE this book!
I especially love the quotes throughout the book such as;
“When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses” By Joyce Brothers
If you’re a grandparent, you WILL absolutely be thrilled with The Simple Joys of Grandparenting. A huge smile armored my face as I began diving in and reading. Love it!!! =)
