Grandparenting is the perfect book for any grandparent, foster grandparent, aunt, uncle, neighbor, or friend who wants to play a "grand role" in the life of a child. This informative and upbeat volume explores the influential link grandparents serve in their grandchildren's lives: as providers of emotional security, as role models, mentors, teachers, students, family historians, magicians, and, even in today's fast-paced society, caretakers.

More than 50 activities designed to enrich the connection between grandchildren and adults of all ages.

Warm and insightful anecdotes about such issues as relating to a grandchild with special needs, sharing traditions and rituals, and supplying "emotional social security".

Playfully illustrated throughout and easy-to-read.

Also included is the Family History Project, a special way to document and pass down family memories to future generations.
