Throwing a baby shower for grandma could be a great way to commemorate the excitement of becoming a grandmother for the first time. There's nothing like spoiling the little cuties for a day and then sending them home to their parents!

You might not want to have a seperate grandma baby shower, but you could always include her as a special guest of honor in the baby shower for mom. You also might want to acknowledge the grandmother-to-be during the regular shower with grandmother gifts or a thank you.

Baby showers for grandmothers can take place anywhere at anytime, since it's not necessary to worry about accommodating a very pregnant woman. Office parties are nice since they don't have to be extravagant and don't require anyone to change their plans. Even a small dinner party is nice for close friends.
