From babysitting schedules to dealing with stepchildren to long-distance grandparenting, this book covers everything that today's grandmas and grandpas need to know--in a warm, witty style that can help anyone feel relaxed and reassured in this new family role.Written by a grandmother who's authored fourteen previous books, Grandparenting ABCs discusses the newest developments in pregnancy and childbirth, makes suggestions for the most useful baby gifts and the best books, music, and toys for each stage of growth, explores the emotions that may come with this important life passage--and offers a road map through one of life's most joyful journeys, letting grandparents pass on a legacy of love to the newest generation.
My pregnant daughter-in-law gave this to me. This will be our first grandchild. We are thrilled and excited, but it has been decades since I was looking to purchase port a cribs, car seats etc. The writing is clear and fun. She gives very specific advice about what to buy and what is not necessary. She handles big issues of not interfering or criticizing, but in a humorous way we can all relate to. After I read this slim book, I ordered more to give to my friends who are lucky to be joining the ranks of grandparents. This is a keeper!
Perfect Gift for new grandparents!
