My 7 year old daughters favorite book is How to Babysit a Grandpa. With my mom's birthday, aka Grandma/Nena, in August I thought this would be a perfect gift for her to enjoy with my 7 year old and new baby that's due in September 2017. Fantastic books. I highly recommend this series.

What an adorable story that shows the great bond of a child and their grandma! All the fun things to do with grandma when Mom and Dad can’t be there. Just seeing my granddaughter smile and day dream has been a beautiful thing!! Will we go to the park and slide down the bumpy slide? She gets to decide! It will be a fun adventure though! Thank goodness for that great balance of technology and good old fashioned books! I have been able to read to my granddaughter a nightly story via FaceTime while she has been in the hospital for three months. What a beautiful way to close that gap of distance when we can’t be there every day. I am so happy to have this book in our at-home library for her! A wonderful addition for your home! Makes a great gift as well! Add your own ideas as to how to babysit your grandma!

This book was purchased along with two others that were donated to a school library in memory of the mother of a dear friend. The book is a personal favorite of mine because our granddaughter gifted my husband and I with this one as well as "How To Babysit A Grandpa". Both are very lighted hearted and very "apropos" depictions about the fun and enjoyment that is had when playing with grandkids...and begs to answer the question, "Who is babysitting whom" . They couldn't have been titled better ! It's fun to hear the giggles when our granddaughter reads it to us! I also chose this one for the school because of the age range from Kdg thru Grade 2 although the older elementary kids love it too. The illustrations are so cute and really give a nod to fun grandparents everywhere !

My mother in law watches my daughter every day. I bought this book for her for Christmas and she laughs and thinks it so funny to hear that it’s the other way around and she’s babysitting her grandma. Super cute and funny! 🤣

I just read this book before I wrapped it for my Granddaughter, (which I do with all their books). I was smiling throughout this whole book. My granddaughter loves when I read books to her and her brother. We have done a lot of these together, going to the park, playing dress up and we even brush hair others hair. The senior building where I live doesn't allow us to have sleepovers with our grandkids, but it doesn't stop me from staying at their house overnight. She even has a Princess Tent in her room, so we can sleep in it when I come over. We have such a great time reading books and these "How To" books are just the thing to give us more ideas when they babysit their Grammy, (me). I cannot wait to purchase more of these, "How To" books for them.
