So let’s get started!

1. Personalized Key Chain.

This is a personalized hand-stamped great grandma keychain. It’s a special gift for the first-time Great-Grandma. It would also make a fun pregnancy announcement for grandma or a treasured Mother’s Day gift. They even have a version for first-time Grandmas, too.

2. Personalized Christmas Ornaments

A personalized ornament is a special reminder of the year they were made Grandparents for the first time. The ornament will be treasured for years to come, bringing back memories of the day her life changed, her heart grew and she became a Grandma. How about this one?

Or this one?

3. New Grandma Bracelet

This fashion statement bracelet is great to have as a new Grandma. But you know what? It could be even more fun down the road. As her Grandchild gets a little older, she can share with them – the charms, the stories about becoming a new Grandma, how she felt, and how much that Grandchild means to her. A bracelet that serves a purpose now AND later. It’s also a repeat gift idea – add charms on Mother’s Day, her birthday, or on other special occasions.

4. Customizable Tote Bags.

Grandmas love to brag about their new little Grand, don’t they? This tote bag will start conversations with people in the store, at the park, or in line at the movies. Help Grandma tell others about her new status! And I’m sure she DOES look too young to be a Grandma…

5. Photo Book

Take some of those great new baby photos from your phone and create a fun little brag book for Grandma. Seems like we take a lot more photos than in the past, but rarely print them. And Grandma can access her own photos, but I’m sure she would love to see yours, too!

6. Wall Calendar

The family is important to a first-time Grandma and this calendar will remind her of you all year long. Choose some of your favorite family photos from the year and make your own personalized calendar. How about a side-by-side comparison of baby pictures? Maybe use photo bloopers or silly moments from the past year. Or photos from your own childhood – every new Grandma is thinking about the time their own child was a baby.

7. Grandma and Grandpa Mugs

These Grandma and Grandpa mugs are so cute! A reminder of Grandparent status along with her coffee every morning. (and a donut, yes?)

8. Long Distance Grandma Key Chain

It’s hard to be a long-distance Grandparent. But no matter how far apart you are, there is room for love to grow. This keychain says it all.

9. Books for Babies Gift Set

I don’t know about you, but as a Grandma, I always appreciate gifts that are really for my Grandchildren. It’s great to have some books on hand for entertainment during baby visits. A beginning Baby Book Gift set like this one is perfect for the new Grandma’s collection. It’s never too early to begin a reading program with your Grandkids!

10. Grandma’s House Sign

What do you think about this great sign? They will personalize this with the date you choose. Wouldn’t it look great in her home? For more sign ideas see this post: Cute Grandparent Signs That are Perfect for Grandma and Grandpa
