Craft Supplies – This is a great one! Just about all Grandmothers like to do crafts.

Grandmother Memory Book - A nostalgic gift for Grandmothers, a memory book can be a keepsake for your Grandmother’s stories. Typically written in a daily entry format, a memory book probes your Grandmother for answers to intriguing questions regarding what her life has been like.

Herb Garden – Give your Grandmother the gift of herbs. An herb garden can be fun for your Grandmother to grow, especially if she likes gardening. Plus, instead of using the typical dried seasonings, she can add fresh herbs to her special recipes with pride!
Homemade T-Shirts or Sweatshirts – Grandmothers love homemade gifts from children! Stop by a craft supply store and pick up fun colors of fabric paints in squeeze bottles and a blank t-shirt or sweatshirt. Create your own design on paper first, and then make it come alive on the actual T-shirt or sweatshirt with creative splashes of color and glitter. Make sure to spell out “Grandma” as part of your design. A creative children's gift for Grandmother she’ll always wear with pride!
Plants – Does your Grandmother love plants? If so, get her a nice plant that’s easy to grow and maintain. A colorful, flowering plant in her favorite color will help brighten her surroundings. Plus, she’ll think of you often when she admires it!
