Grandparents are the parents of our parents, on both the maternal and paternal side.

We are likely to experience a close relationship with our grandparents throughout childhood, when it is common for them to give a helping hand with babysitting and upbringing.

Many people may associate their grandparents with holidays like Christmas and New Year’s Eve, as well as family birthday parties.

Keynotes about grandparents may focus on topics such as these, or they may focus on the special role that grandparents play in relation to their grandchildren.
