Additional Gift Ideas

by Lois Breneman 2009 - Heart to Heart


Idea for Grandmas to Give: Kids' Quotes in Booklet Form
~ Many times I have advised moms to scribble down all the cute quotes of their children.  I often ask our children if their kids have said any cute quotes lately, then scribble down each one, just in case they miss any in their own records.  So Grandmas, try putting together a little booklet of your grandchildren's quotes to give to your children!  You know they will love it!


Scripture Verse Picture Book ~ Get a list of all the scripture verses your children or grandchildren learn in school, Sunday school or Awana.  Then make them a picture book with each scripture verse.  It will be a very special gift to help them review those verses, so they will be ingrained in their minds and heart all their lives.

Handmade Soap Recipes ~ Debbie Tuott in Minnesota says, "I want to make homemade presents for all my extended family. We have made soaps before, but I am inviting several families over at different times to make as big a variety of these soaps as possible-- tons and I mean TONS of ideas and recipes and pics here." http://www.millersoap.com/soapallveg.html#Sudsy
A Perfect Gift for Seniors would be to make them freezer meals!  


(This is another great gift for seniors, who are often cold).
The Snuglett ~ Debbie Tuott in Minnesota says, "My daughter and I made many of these for Christmas last year to rave reviews!! This is pdf file but it is easy to do and we hand sewed them all very quickly!!"
