Don\u2019t forget: Grandparents Day is on October 3rd<\/sup>.  Whether you celebrate your grandparents every year or just want to do something special this time around, gifts for Grandparents Day are a treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, when it comes to searching for gifts, grandparents can be tough. You\u2019ve probably already exhausted all your ideas on birthdays and holidays throughout the years. It raises the question we might feel like we\u2019re always asking: what do you get someone who has everything? In that case, it\u2019s time to create a personalised gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grandparents Day Gift Guide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As kids, you may have made handprint-themed gifts for them in school. And while they were tickled pink back then, now you can step up your gifts with something from our list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those of us lucky enough to have our grandparents in our lives, our time with them is precious. Whether you feel compelled to give them an extravagant gift this year, or just to give gram and gramps a call in the afternoon, make sure you celebrate them on October 3rd<\/sup>. And every year after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s one thing grandparents love, it\u2019s photos of their grandkids. Print your cutest baby photos on these practical and meaningful personalised gifts. Gifts that you design yourself can be anything you want, so go crazy with adding names and photos onto items that will become keepsakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jigsaw Puzzles<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\"Personalized<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

For the grandparents that love to keep busy, a puzzle is the perfect interactive gift. Choose from five sizes, from 30 to 1000 pieces, depending on how much time they have on their hands. Add a family photo or create a collage for a real challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photo Blanket<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Custom<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Photo blankets are one of our most popular gifts for a reason: they\u2019re snuggly, warm, and look beautiful when personalised. (Okay, that was more than one reason, but we think your grandparents will agree.) A fleece blanket is the ultimate gift to snuggle up in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Custom Apron<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Custom<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Even the best restaurants in town can\u2019t outshine grandma and grandpa\u2019s cooking. To show your gratitude for their famous meatloaf, personalise an apron so that they can keep the grease and baking flour off their clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Custom Slippers<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Personalized<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If, by some miracle, you haven\u2019t gifted your grandparents with slippers, then this will be a first. If you\u2019ve given them a pair of slippers before, don\u2019t worry \u2013 these aren\u2019t your average slippers. Printed with your grandparents\u2019 favourite photos, these neoprene and canvas slippers are a delight and feature a non-slip leatherette sole. They\u2019ll wish you would have gifted them sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photo Calendars<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Photo<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gram and gramps probably like to keep things traditional, in which case they aren\u2019t using Google Calendar to keep track of holidays, events, and appointments. Collect your best family photos from the year to make a custom calendar just for them. (At the risk of getting too personal here, the annual photo calendar is a gift tradition that my own family has been doing for my grandparents for almost 20 years. Two decades later and it still makes grandma cry.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personalised Pyjamas<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Personalized<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nothing is better than slipping into pyjamas after a long day at work. And after you\u2019ve been working for forty years, it feels even better! Use your photos to customise pyjamas for your grandparents to relax and lounge in \u2013 they deserve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glass Photo Prints<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Custom<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Another thing we know about grandparents is that they often have a collection of photos throughout the house. On walls, tables, and hung up on the refrigerator. Add a glass photo print to their collection for a unique spin on the traditional framed photo. Your photos are printed directly on the glass and displayed in all their glory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Brief History<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ever wondered how Grandparents Day came to be? In the early 1960s, residents in the Bronx borough of New York City began celebrating Grandparents Day to recognise and honour the role of grandparents. The following decade, a West Virginian woman named Marian McQuade campaigned to establish a day of recognition for grandparents. Eight years later, in 1978, the United States Congress declared the first Sunday after Labour Day to be National Grandparents Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, we have dedicated a special day to spending time with our grandparents, giving them a phone call, asking for more stories, and giving them gifts to show we care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
