*Visit your grandparents.

*Invite your grandparents to your home.

*Take them out to eat.

*Send them a note, a card, a gift.

*Phone them if they live too far away.

*”Adopt” someone for a grandparent if yous live far away or are no longer living.

*Teach grandparent appreciation to your children.

*Make a Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt!

*Write “What grandparents mean to me” story and post it on your blog.

*Tell your children and grandchildren about your grandparents so those stories aren’t forgotten and lost to your family history.
