Gifts for Grandpa for Father’s Day 2014

Finding thoughtful gifts for grandpas, granddads, papas and pops, or whatever their name of endearment, can be a shopping challenge. Grandpa may be a softie, a jokester, a fixer or a storyteller, but he probably loves a thoughtful, personal gift from the grandkids on Father’s Day. (that’s what happens when you get older!)

To ease your search, I have compiled The Grandparent Gift Co.’s top 5 thoughtful gifts grandpas for Father’s Day. There is a little something for the different types of grandpas, but each combine poignant words from the heart with a beautiful gift he will brag about.

1. The Grandparent Memory Book
“When I was your age”, “Back in my day”…if these are things Grandpa often says, make sure he has his memories written down for his children and grandchildren. The Grandparent’s Memory Book is a beautifully compiled hardcover memory book with questions for grandparents asked by real grandkids. The questions are insightful, funny and curious, just like grandkids themselves. When the book is complete, there isn’t anything more treasured.

2. Grandpa’s Heart

If he is a real teddy bear or has a soft spot, but doesn’t always show it, Grandpa’s Heart will get him. This now classic poem that brings tears to many a grandpa is available framed for home décor, for baby’s room or as a card suitable for a baby book or picture frame. The masculine walnut or silver framed Grandpa’s Heart has a space for a special photograph. It will be a welcome addition to his home or office wall or desktop.

3. Grandpa Life Story Frame

Pictures tell a story. Give him our popular Life Story Frame where Grandpa is first pictured as a young man, then a father, then a grandpa. The captions and your photos are the perfect gift to show him how he has been “promoted” over the years.

4. Family Tree Handprint Frame

Handprint gifts make special keepsakes for grandpas and we have quite a few to choose from. One of our newest additions is our Family Tree handprint frame. This 11×14 black or white wall frame can be personalized just the way you like. Tell us what name or message you would like on the bottom of the print. Use stamps or paints to add up to 5 grandchildrens’ handprints to the print for a wonderful work of heart this Father’s Day.

 

5 Fishing with Grandpa Frame
A wonderful framed sentiment in two styles, tells Grandpa fishing with him is more about the memories you catch, then the fish! Add your own photo of a grandson or granddaughter to either style black frame for a gift a “fishing” grandpa will love.
