Chapter 1
"Shake, Rattle and Roll"
opens the book by sharing reactions to becoming a grandparent. See the sample
chapter below.
Chapter 2
"Let It Be"
is about providing unconditional acceptance as a special gift of grandparenting.
Chapter 3
"96 Tears"
offers ideas and suggestions on how to handle crying grandchildren.
Chapter 4
"The Purple People Eaters"
speaks to the benefit of telling silly, outrageous stories. My grandson prefers
my made-up stories to anything I read to him. The more outlandish, the better
he likes them.
Chapter 5
"Bye Bye Love"
tackles the difficult subject of parents splitting up, and the delicate task of
staying neutral for the sake of your grandchild.
Chapter 6
"Easier Said Than Done"
shows how to bond when you don't live just down the street. Long-distance relationships
are more common with today's very mobile younger generation. Scheduling trips
and frequent mailings and email are critical in building a meaningful grandparenting
experience.
Chapter 7
"Girls Just Want To Have Fun"
recommends playing board games, building tents as forts, swimming, going to the
beach, and many other fun activities to build a memorable relationship with grandkids.
Chapter 8
"Happy Together"
The line, I can't see me lovin' nobody but you says it all. Singing a fun, sweet
song creates lasting memories, and this Happy Together is the best. |
