"If I had known how wonderful it would be to have grandchildren, I'd have had them first."~Lois Wyse
Welcome to Growing Grandkids!
This site dedicated to the millions of grandparents who are involved in providing childcare for their grandchildren. Like "regular" grandparents, we play games, read stories, bake cookies, and go on
outings to parks, museums, and libraries. However, in addition to these things, we have the
sometimes overwhelming responsibility for the day-to-day care of our growing grandchildren.
In these pages, you'll find great tips and suggestions for making the most of this special relationship. From the most current information and links to governmental and legal agencies, to advice on nutrition, child development and taking care of yourself physically and emotionally, inside we hope you'll find the support and encouragement you need to make this challenging job more rewarding as you watch your grandkids grow and blossom.
