‘Grandparents Day!’

A day of celebrating the connections between the generations, the roots of Grandparents Day go back to 1956 and a West Virginia mother named Marian McQuade. She wanted a holiday to bring attention to these forgotten individuals and to honor all grandparents. 

So, in 1973, West Virginia became the first state to have such a day.

 

Purpose of Grandparents Day

 

Grandparents' Day or National Grandparents' Day is a holiday celebrated in various countries; its celebration shows the bond between grandparents and grandchildren. It occurs on different days of the year, either as one holiday or sometimes as a separate Grandmother's Day and Grandfather's Day.

 

 

Grandparents Day became an official national holiday in 1978, signed by President Carter and celebrated on the first Sunday after Labor Day.

How I Found My Monster Kittens [The New Three Little Kittens] Good read for ages 2-8. By Olexity Starr What a cute, funny story tale with some rhyming connections, its colorful simple yet interesting enough to keep a child listening. The monster kittens are not really monsters looking, but cute - that went outside to play alone without letting the boy in the story know. There is a good lesson to learn not to go out doors or anywhere without informing someone an adult, friend, or neighbor.  A good quick read for younger children.
