Grandparent 101: The Modern Grandparent’s Playbook

(BPT) - One of the most beautiful aspects of growing older is how gracefully we navigate the changing roles that accompany each new phase of life. An exciting phase that brings an abundance of joy — and can also require some pro tips and preparation — is grandparenthood.

"As a new chapter of your family story begins, there are a lot of things to keep in mind as a grandparent," said Elvira Christiansen, Director of Retail & Loyalty for AARP Services. "AARP member benefits can help you every step of the way, from saving money on the visit to meet your grandchildren to sending thoughtful gifts to let your family know you're thinking of them."
