This giveaway is now closed and the winner has been contacted. Congratulations to April and thank you to everyone who entered!
When a baby is born with a disability, the focus is generally on the baby and his mom and dad. Everyone in the family gathers round to help and support in any way they can.
The baby's grandparents often play a very important role in the family as they bond with the new baby, help the new parents find the resources they need, and just keep everything moving smoothly.
And yet sometimes we forget to thank the grandparents! Since September is Grandparents Month, I think it's high time we give them the spotlight! So I'm giving away a copy of the wonderful book In Celebration of Grandparenting that looks at all the ways grandparents can be involved in the lives of their grandchildren who are blind or visually impaired.
The book explains the best ways to interact with children with little or no vision and gives ideas for toys and games you can play. It also discusses what to do about your other grandkids (who may be feeling neglected) and how best to offer your advice to your own children without overstepping your bounds. It's really a great resource for grandparents!

This is awesome I'd love to enter!
Love to read this!!! My grandaughter is legally Blind! Would love to learn more about what toys to buy!
Yes, please!!!
I found your website today and think it is so beautiful! I have five grown children, but my best friend's granddaughter was born blind. I have been her paraprofessional since she was 4. She will be 8 in a few weeks. I have never seen such a bond and so much love. When she hugs me, I can hear the angels wings fluttering nearby as they have been asked for protection Psalm 91:11. Than you , Blessings , Kim
Love to get this for my best friend...Please enter me.
Thank you for all that you do.
Please enter me in the drawing for this book. My youngest son's grandpa, my dad, is visiting next month so that'd be awesome if we could get a copy for him and grandma.
I would love to be able to give this to a grandmother whose daughter has CHARGE syndrome. The family has limited resources and would benefit greatly. Thanks!
