Ideas for congratulations grandma

I work with a lovely lady who’s soon to become a grandma for the first time. I’d love to organise something special to celebrate for her. I know you can buy congratulations grandparent cards. Is there anything else you can suggest to do please?

I don’t know the parents at all, but assuming they will get lots of baby clothes etc from friends and relatives

Bit old school but maybe a photo frame that’s says ‘grandma’ or similiar she can put a photo of the two of them in?

Or a coffee mug that says ‘worlds sexiest grandma’ or similiar depending on their sense of humour

A set of children’s cutlery and crockery for use at her house?

A brag book (small photo album that fits into a handbag)

Definitely maybe some lovely melanine or plastic cups and plates and you tend to get rid of these and are definitely needed in the future. Another idea is a toy box ( adult styled if required) to fit into their decor so storing toys etc.

I love the idea of having something for her house.

Also books, like board books and stuff for them to read together.

I loved visiting my grandma and the ceramic bunnikins would come out. We’d share toast and tea with my special crockery.

I know you can get melemine versions these days but the ceramic ones were pretty spesh. My Gran has passed now and I was given my set of the crockery for a keepsake. Lovely memory !

That is what I did for my boss. A selection of some of our favourite picture books for her to share with her new grandchild. She really appreciated it, and was touched to receive a ‘new grandma’ gift.
