Need help with a gift idea for a new Grandma!?
I am planning a little baby shower for a lady at work whose daughter is about to give birth to her first grandbaby! I’m needing a gift idea that a group of us can pitch in on and get for her new grandbaby! I would like to get her something big, like a play pin or something of that nature, but I can still fill with little things like blankets, bottles, etc. Keep in mind, this is to be kept at the Grandmother’s house, not Mom’s! I’d like to keep the cost around no more than $ 50-75 for the bigger gift, that way I can fill up with the little things too! Thanks for the help!!

a play yard sounds like a great idea! i have a graco play yard…counting sheep pattern from babies r us.. it’s a good size and easy to set up and take down.
or even a nice rubbermaid tub for toys! my mom has one for our baby to play in at her place. He loves it the tub more than the toys sometimes!

That sounds like a good idea so far. You could probably throw in a bunch of picture frames and a scrapbook with all the scrapbooking items.
How about a baby tub or even a small basket that the baby can lay in when at the grandmom’s house. You can pick those up at baby’s r us or burlington baby depot… they are inexpensive and you can get pampers, wipes and lotion and put it in there and then get some of that sicilone wrap from the dollar store and wrap it up… put bows all around it and it would be really nice and approiate……
you are so thoughful! be sure to toss in one of those dispoable cameras for those precious “kodak” moments. Also, don’t forget about some safety things : outlet covers, thingys to keep cabinets closed, etc ’cause that grandbaby will be cruising around be fore you know it.
Also, maybe some first aid items: baby asprin, a thermometer, etc.
Good luck!
