The TVCH members always have great suggestions, so why not have a thread so people can ask for suggestions on different things. First one: What are some suggestions for a little kid to give a great gramma on her 85th birthday? I was thinking maybe 85 pennies in some type of contain. Any suggestions for containers or different ideas? Thanks in advance!

How about 85 kisses? A pretty jar of Hershey kisses. 85 hand prints framed?

If Great Gramma has a good sense of humor, have the little one (and any other child you can find!) write down how they thought life was 85 years ago. Hmmm, was McDonalds around 85 years ago, and if they were, what did they sell?

I bet she'd treasure the handprints. Maybe each person could sign their print (or pair of them)..

That would be cute too Huk! Julie..you should do the handprints and a little book with the 'what was life like 85 years ago'. you could send each family an index card and have each child write what they thought life was life then send it back to you. All you would have to do is hole punch one corner and then bind them all together with a pretty ribbon.

On my grandma's 90th birthday all the grandchildren were to write a page about grandma and memories about her. It was a put in a scrap book and given to her. She just loved it! I really enjoyed writing it and it brought back such wonderful memories of my childhood. We also included a picture with it too.
