No matter how naughty you may have been, if there was one person who always stood up for you, it was most probably on of your grandparents. If not one of them then definitely both of them! There is nothing like a stern look from grandpa or grandma to make the angry voices of your parents subside in a second. Even when you grew up, their house was always a welcome change from your own and their hugs are still the most calming things in the world. With grandparents like this, its almost shameful to let any chance to surprise them go by. Looking to surprise them then? Well we’re sure we can help you with that endeavour. Read on for the best gifts for grandparents:

1. Grandpa and Grandma’s house wall sign “ memories made here”: The times spent at our grandparents will always remain a cherished memory for all of us throughout our lives. There are various reasons for it. One of them is that the house itself was magic, it created happiness out of nothing and the memories we have from there are all worth keeping forever. You should let your grandparents know how much it all meant to you, and what better way than to get a wall sign that they can look at over their morning cuppa?

2. Grandparents House Rules Print: We have seen the rules strung up in libraries and fields and private properties all over the place, and absolutely none of them were made to suit us. We’re sure you’ve faced the same. However, there was always one place where every rule was for us and even those that were bent were because of us. These rules are exactly why Grandma and Grandpa’s place always rule. This printed poster is a subtle reminder for them that the times are not forgotten.

3. This is what the world’s greatest grandpa looks like t shirt: We’re sure everybody has heard stories of how grandpa’s young years went by and he was forever the cool dude.

4.  I’m a grandma what’s your superpower mug: The cakes she baked and the way she was able to shut up the neighbourhood bullies was magic right?

6. Grandparents make it up as you go journal : An excursion into time is something everybody cherishes. One day when you grow up and need advice that is too personal or philosophical to ask, you will wish that you’d have had your grandpa’s wit or your grandma’s calm to combat the situations you face. We say get them this diary cum journal and in a year you will know more about them than you ever did before. It contains questions for every month of a year and prompts for answers which vary from childhood incidents, daily happenstance  plus their  takes on life. If you love the first year, we think you should make this a yearly event!

7.  Grandpa and Grandma set of mugs: They have been together long enough to have had and raised kids and then gone a step further and raised their grandkids.

This pair of coffee mugs is just like them, they fit together and are made specifically for one another. What better way to celebrate their lives together?

Our parents didn’t even squeak once we passed into grandparent territory at the entrance of the house. We suggest you try it out too. It’ll give your grandparents something to laugh about.
