Christmas Gifts for Grandparents

The best Christmas gifts for grandparents are a Grandchildren's Christmas blanket, a Reasons We Love Grandma / Grandad cushion or a Printerpix canvas of the cousins. Grandchildren's Christmas sets out the grandchildren's photos and names, addressed to Nana. The reasons design lists, in the children's own words, why they love them.

A photo book or Our Family Tree suits sentimental grandparents, while a blanket, mug or photo calendar suits practical ones. One framed print suits a small flat with little wall space. When several grandchildren give together, a collage design such as The Grandkids has room for several of them, each named. With no photos to hand, choose Things We Love About Your Grandparents on a Printerpix canvas.

A good Christmas present for Nan is Photo Letters spelling NANA, each letter filled with a grandchild, on a cushion, blanket or canvas. It spells NAN or NANNY too, so pick the name the grandchildren really use. A mug of the little ones suits her morning tea.

World's Best Grandad on a mug, with his photo and the title he has earned, is a Christmas gift he sees at breakfast. Grandpa might prefer a Printerpix jigsaw of the grandchildren to finish after lunch, with help he did not ask for. For a grandfather with a shed or a workshop, a photo calendar of the family brings a new picture each month.

A shared Christmas present for Nan and Grandad is Our Family Tree on a canvas or framed print, which puts the two of them at the base of the tree and everyone else in its branches. It needs names more than pictures. For grandmothers and grandfathers who still host, a photo blanket of the whole clan belongs on the sofa.

Promoted to Grandparents, on a mug or cushion with their new title and the year, marks a first Christmas as grandparents. Add the baby's photo if you have a good one. A canvas of the new grandchild asleep on Grandad's chest suits the landing. More ideas for the little one are on our baby's first Christmas page.

The Christmas Jumper design puts a few grandchildren's faces inside a knitted-look pattern, on a jigsaw, mug, cushion or blanket. Red Tartan is quieter: one oval portrait of the pair, plus your surname and the year. Both look festive without anyone posing in December, so photos from the summer work fine.

Our Year in Pictures, the family's year in photos around a big year number, is a Christmas gift from the grandchildren on a blanket or canvas. Let them choose the photos themselves. For a present from you alone, see Christmas gifts for Mum and Christmas gifts for Dad. Year-round ideas sit on our gifts for grandparents page, and our Christmas gifts page has the rest.
