Our New Addition: New Grandparents Essentials

Presenting an online grandparent guide just for you. 

I had a dream a couple weeks ago that I was pregnant. Before you wonder, let me assure you that I am not secretly longing for a baby! (In fact, in the dream, I had decided my son and daughter-in-law could raise the baby with their three existing children!) It wasn’t exactly a nightmare, but it was definitely stressful. When I woke up, I had to laugh at myself: is launching a new online product really so close to giving birth? Let's see: insomnia, indigestion, new hopes and fears, choosing a name, figuring out where to deliver: there are definitely some similarities!
​
Whatever the parallels may be, the big day has arrived. I am so happy to announce the arrival of New Grandparent Essentials. From the beginning, the mission at More Than Grand has been to arm grandparents like you with the knowledge you need to be valuable, dearly loved partners in your grandchildren’s lives. New Grandparent Essentials goes beyond that by providing concrete steps and tools to prepare for this new role. Unlike most grandparenting classes (which are few and far between!), this one goes beyond brushing up your diapering skills. 

New Grandparent Essentials is the only comprehensive guide for new grandparents on the internet. It includes:

• The MVG Secret: There are a million ways to be a grandparent, but being a Most Valuable Grandparent requires knowing this important strategy.
• Partnering with Parents: You’ll get conversation starters and tested advice to help establish boundaries and avoid common pitfalls.
• Your Grand Plan: Planning is key to success. Our guided exercise provides a framework to clarify your expectations and intentions, then helps you create a plan to achieve them.
• Care and Safety: The latest information on baby care and safety so you don’t have to spend hours searching the internet.
• Resources: A list of recommended books, websites and more to find further information and inspiration, plus easy access to all of More Than Grand’s free downloads.

Becoming a grandparent is not just a new role: It’s a new relationship with your grandchild’s parents. All new relationships need care and nurturing, and this one can be harder than most! It’s easy for grandparents to make mistakes without even realizing it. New Grandparent Essentials provides you with the tools and information you need to be a prepared grandparent, one who will become a valuable partner to parents and an important part of your grandchild’s life.

One way that having a baby is definitely different than launching an online guide: you never have to worry if people will like your baby! I hope that you will like New Grandparent Essentials, even if it doesn’t have that precious new baby smell.
