Birthday gift for Grandma?

Today is Grandma%26#039;s birthday! She%26#039;s 92 years old! Woo Hoo! We%26#039;re having a family party for her this weekend, and my husband and I have no idea what to get her. If we ask, she%26#039;ll be adorable and say %26quot;Oh, I don%26#039;t need anything,%26quot; so what do you think? I was thinking about flowers, or maybe a potted plant that doesn%26#039;t need too much maintenance. Any suggestions? She doesn%26#039;t wear jewelry, just so you know. Thanks for your help!

Birthday gift for Grandma?
As people age they tend to shop less and get chilled more. A nice light sweater is always good. At this stage in life, we certainly don%26#039;t need more things so fresh flowers which can be seen as an extravagant treat will certainly brighten her day and not require her to maintain or store them later.
Reply:Pay her electric bill for one month. That would be a wonderful treat for anyone. Report It

Reply:My mother-in-law lived to be 92 and it was difficult buy her gifts because her needs were so limited. She always loved pretty clothes and appreciated something new to wear. Maybe you Grandma would appreciate a new outfit? Most of all she will enjoy having you there for her party. Have fun!
Reply:I think a nice blooming plant would be lovely. Lots of them do not take too much attention.
Reply:I guess it depends on what her living arrangements are?


If she is still at home, perhaps a scented candle -


Or a gift card to her favorite grocery store . . .


Always a nice card is appreciated - which she can look at, over and over (we tend to do that stuff).
Reply:i would say something like a nice warm blanket or a comfortable robe or something of the sort. the elderly like to be warm and comfortable.
Reply:How about a photograph of all the family together.


We did this just before my mother in law died and we are


so glad that we had that last photo of us all to remember.


She loved showing it off and used to call it the picture of her tribe.
Reply:Bed clothes. A bed jacket if she is so inclined but my guess and experience with our seniors is just what she says is true and enjoy making the fuss over the day and help to make sure everything is put in its place and she is not over tired. Bless you for the attention.
Reply:Maybe some soft cozy slippers, a bed jacket, or a nice soft lap blanket. Tell Grandma Happy Birthday.
Reply:I got my grandmother a beautiful tray on which to take her meals to the couch (to watch the television). If your gram eats in the same glamorous way (actually, as many seniors do), a pretty TV tray might be nice... My grandmother LOVES hers!





p.s. I found mine very reasonably at a Villeroy %26amp; Boch outlet

Reply:Don%26#039;t let her blow out the candles ... help her please!
Reply:Am not 92 but here are a few things I would like......A .Digital Photo Frame with a slide show of my love ones.......It would be nice to see pictures on it from my youth, my parents up to the day of the party and including the party....I also like it when one of my grandchildren, sons or husband remembers to buy me a corsage......
Reply:I agree with CC good idea. For X-mas My Kids gave me a portrait of the 10 of them. I smile every morning when I look at them. My Grandchildren look so beautiful. My son and daughter the husband and wife, and my 6 little rag muffins. What a joy.
Reply:Something pretty to keep her warm, like gloves or a scarf. Seniors are always cold. The other thing is prepared food item that they can just heat or put into their microwave if they live at home. Otherwise some baked goods or treats that she would never buy for herself.
Reply:My grandma will be 90 next month I got her a silver keepsake box and had it engraved with %26quot;Happy 90th Birthday Grandma%26quot; Might try something like that
Reply:Do you have a video cam? Everyone go on the video giving Gran some birthday wishes, and perhaps telling of something special they remember sharing with her over the years.
