The Gifted Grandparent: Grandpa

babysugar — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 05:00:42 PST

The title "Grandpa" often connotes images of an old man with a cane, glasses and worn out hands. But if 50 is the new 30, then Gramps should act and dress the part, too.

Make sure the man is well groomed with a set of Kiehl's shaving lotions and creams. Your wee one should be begging for kisses from Gramps, not a porcupine.
Keep Grandaddy hip with a timeless pair of Chuck Taylors. The grandchildren will think he's the coolest pop on the block.
For the dapper Pappy, a cashmere tartan scarf will keep him nice and cozy on the outside while giving him warm fuzzies on the inside.

The Gifted Grandparent: Grandma

LilSugar — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 05:00:43 PST

Grandmothers must have the toughest job buying holiday gifts for their own children and their spouses, grandchildren, great grandchildren and others. Don't let her get swept under the rug with another pair of raggedy old slippers. Show her some love with one of these thoughtful gifts.

Nothing says lovin' like cooking with Grams. And chances are, nobody cooks better than her, either. Create memories in the kitchen (and grab a few tips) using the festive gingerbread man tray and enjoy yourselves as you decorate the lil brown fellas.
I never met a grandma who didn't have a stash of candy around her house somewhere. Lure her tasty treats onto the pretty silver platter and out of that old outdated crystal dish.
I'm sure your Granny knows who the Queen Bee of the family is, but just in case she needs reminding, the gold charm bracelet with the tiara charm will let her know how much she is celebrated and regaled in her family ranks.
