Grandparents’ memories, and those of other older relatives, contribute to the family heritage.\u00a0 Record them, write them down, compile them in scrapbooks.\u00a0 Those help children realize who they truly are and help form a family bond.<\/p>\n

If grandchildren can work on Holiday memory projects with grandparents, these have special meaning, too.\u00a0 My mother and mother-in-law shared their memories with my daughter.\u00a0I encouraged my daughter to take part in it, or at least be a good listener.\u00a0 We now reminisce about some of the things they did and said, passing them along to my grandchildren.<\/p>\n

These memories are somewhat like the oral histories of various cultures, when stories\u00a0were passed along through the generations by word of mouth.\u00a0 However, so they don’t get lost in time, make sure you record them in some fashion.\u00a0 The holiday memories are especially precious.<\/p>\n
