I Love You, Grandma Book

This book is sure to make both the grandma and grandchild smile as they read together. Most children just love to be read to and what better way to read together than to make the reading focused on a grandma and her grandchild!

Just like so many young children ask questions about everything, Little Bear is very inquisitive. Kids enjoy getting answers to their questions with examples so they can grasp and understand the answer. Grandma bear helps Little Bear discover the answers to his questions about how to find food by showing him how to use his five senses. She leads him through the forest by asking questions to make him think (which is always good stimulation for any child!) and showing him how to use his senses to better understand the food hunting process.

• 10”H x 8”W

• 32 pages

• Large letters for Grandma to easily read.

• Hardcover

• Beautifully illustrated to keep small grandchildren interested and attentive.

For a special touch, consider having the grandchild personalize the book by writing their name or special message inside the cover. Another idea is to have the child add their fingerprints to various pages using washable paint. As long as Grandma is able to read, this is sure to make a gift that she and her grandchild will enjoy during the child’s early years.

Letters to My Grandchild

This gift idea was an “Oprah’s Favorite Things Pick for 2015.” This is a keepsake collection of 12 letters that Grandma can write and postdate for future opening. Imagine leaving a letter for your grandchild to open on their graduation day, their wedding day or other special event.

• The letter gift set includes 64 pages to write the letters (5 pages per envelope), allowing for plenty of space to share memories, insights and experiences.

• Ten of the included envelopes offer prompts such as “The best advice anyone ever game me was…,” “When I was younger…,” “My wishes for you are…” and more. Two of the letters are blank so grandma can write her own special letter.

• The gift set comes in the form of a book and the letters can either be mailed or saved in the book to give all the letters at once as a “paper time capsule” to her special grandchild.

• The letters have lines to help Grandma keep her writing neat and the paper is good quality.

• Postdating and sealing the envelope ensures the letter will be opened at the right time, but you may want to ensure the grandchild’s parents are the custodians of the book until the appropriate time.

The book is less than 4” x 8; however, with five pages per envelope, there should be sufficient space to write your special letter. One possible drawback to the book format for the letters is that some may find it difficult to write the letters while they are still attached to the book. If Grandma finds that is an issue, she can always remove them from the booklet and give the letters individually.

Crock-Pot Express Crock Programmable Multi-Cooker

Welcome Grandma to the new ages with this programmable Crock-Pot Express multi-cooker. Although the Instant Pot® is the latest craze, the Crock-Pot Express functions just as well for a lower price. Needless to say, the Crock-Pot® brand has been around since the early 1970s.

• The all-in-one appliance provides options to slow cook, pressure cook, brown and sauté, or steam.

• It includes 8 one-touch meal settings: Meat/stew, beans/chili, rice/risotto, yogurt, poultry, dessert, soup and multigrain.

• Can cook meals up to 70% faster than traditional cooking.

• Stainless steel cooker with a removable six-quart non-stick dishwasher safe cooking pot.

• A delay start function allows you to start the meal at a later time, enabling you to come home to a fully prepared meal.

• Warm setting keeps your food warm for up to four hours.

Some may appreciate the slow cook function, but wait until they use the pressure cook function! Is the meat you want to prepare still in the freezer? No problem! This cooker will cook your meat in a short period of time whether it is frozen or not without adding cooking time if frozen. Imagine cooking a whole roast with vegetables in less than an hour with all the flavor of cooking it slower in the oven or slow cooker.

The non-stick dishwasher safe cooking pot is where Crock-Pot Express stands out from the Instant Pot with its stainless steel cooking pot which food tends to stick to.

One potential drawback from the Crock-Pot Express versus the Instant Pot® is the lack of a Manual setting. This should only be an issue if you previously used the Instant Pot® which includes the Manual setting and you are used to using the Manual setting. It is easy enough to get around, though, by simply using the Beans/Chili function for recipes that calls for the “manual” setting.
