Treating Gran To A Fun Day Out This Christmas (christmas Gifts For Grandma)

Summer is drawing to a close meaning it's time to start thinking about all important Christmas presents

. Every year partners, parents, close friends and children get a lot of thought, time and money spent on their gifts. Often it is the older generations that miss out on some fantastic gifts although this is not because they are not appreciated. Grandma' and grandads are loved and treasured by grandchildren all around the world, however, it is generally thought of as difficult to find the perfect gift for them.

It need not be this way, however. Grandmas are very easy to buy for if you know how. First of all, get rid of the image of grandma as a cosy old lady who loves knitting and instead think of her as a person. What does she like and dislike, what are her hobbies and interests? Once you start thinking of your grandma as a unique person, you will steer clear of dull and conventional gifts such as slippers and bath products which will be relegated to an old dusty cupboard before it's even New Year.

One of the best Christmas gifts for grandma is an experience day. These days are typically thought of for younger people. Most people associated experience days with the twenty something adventure seeker. However, there are many experiences available for all different kinds of people with a wide range of hobbies and interests. If anything, experience days are more suited to the older generation than the young. Grandmas and grandads are usually retired and have more time on their hands for fun pursuits. They are also more likely to have all the material things they need and will place more value on experiences.

For fantastic Christmas gifts for grandma, begin looking for experience days to suit her hobbies. If she does a lot for you and your family and deserves to be treated, why not get her a pampering experience. There are many of these around to suit different budgets. You could give your grandma a Pamper Treat gift pack where she can choose from a range of treatments including a facial, manicure, or massage from a qualified professional. Alternatively you can find experience days in luxury spas where you can relax in crystal steam rooms and the like. If you want to really treat your grandma, you should get her an experience day for two. This way she is able to share the experience with a friend or loved one, making the day extra special. Plus, if you play your cards right, she may take you! If you are not sure what kind of pampering session your grandma would prefer, get her an ultimate beauty and relaxation gift pack. She can then choose herself from a selection of thirty experiences from pampering sessions to photoshoots!

Another option is to get grandma an experience day that will promote a new hobby or interest or a day that will give her the opportunity to learn how to do something she has always wanted to do. For example, you can now buy her a fantastic Jewellery Making gift experience. Here your grandma will get to learn different jewellery making techniques including wiring, crimping and dying materials. Your grandma will also be able to take home all the jewellery she makes on the day and will receive a jewellery making guidebook. The experience will last approximately four hours and will be something she will always remember. Another fab experience is a Lets Dance session for two. Here your grandma can learn how to dance. She can pick from Salsa, Tango or Ballroom dancing and there is no previous experience required. This night out for two people costs around 40 and may even be the start of a brand new hobby!

You may want to pick an experience day that is very unusual. If you want a highly specific experience day you should get your grandma a Unique Break for two. Experiences include a night in a Victorian Railway Station, a working farm, a Moated Hotel and even the Coachmans Quarters in a castle. These breaks far beat staying in a travel lodge and cost under 100 for two!

If you want to find favourite Christmas gifts for grandma you need to use a bit of imagination. Steer clear of the local high street or conventional gifts such as books, perfume and slippers. Instead, buy her an experience she will never forget. Look out for experience days that suit her hobbies, or days where she can learn something new. Alternatively you could give her the chance to stay in a unique location with a friend or partner for a night. All these experience make fantastic gifts that will really blow her away this Christmas.
