Each grandchild records a message for Granny and Grandad. They get a printed book with a page for every grandchild.
Gathering is free. You won't need a card.
We are enabling over 1 million people to say it. Share the stories, love and gratitude. Your voice is what makes the world's greatest gift.
Put in their name, then send the link to each family with grandchildren.
Friends and family can capture a memory by voice, video, writing or photos, wherever they are in the world. It's easy on any phone and nobody needs an account!
We write out every voice note and gather it all into a podcast you can play and a beautiful book you can hold.
This book is the grandchildren talking. Granny and Grandad tell their own stories in the grandparents book.
A toddler can sing a song or show off a drawing on video.
If there are great-grandchildren, send the link to their parents too.
Play the podcast link on the Sunday visit and leave the printed book behind for them.
Let each child pick what they want to tell them about.
"Granny, I like picking the strawberries in your garden with you."
"Grandad, it's Kilian. Thanks for driving me to hurling every Tuesday when Mam was working, and for the chips on the way home."
"Granny, it's Eabhnat in Melbourne. I wear the green cardigan you knitted me on the cold mornings over here. Love you, Granny."
"Grandad, you showed me the frogs in the bog and I held one. It was cold."
Three weeks covers printing and the post. For anyone starting late, the podcast link and the book online are ready the day you order.
We gave a book of stories about Mam to her for Christmas and she said it was the best gift she had received. There were some stories she had never heard! She felt really surrounded by love.
