However you choose to do it, there are great joys to be had rediscovering the passage of childhood for the third time and being taking an important role in the life of a little one. This little book is packed with fun, creative and practical advice for grandparents. Whether you are a first-time grandparent or you're trying to find new ways to create life-changing experiences with your grandchildren, Things to do now that you're a Grandparent is the book for you.
