grandparenting Grandparents more in - volved than ever before? BY RICHARD AND LINDA EYRE I n the winter issue of GRAND , we talked about the new sense of a more proac- tive Grandparenting Movement that we feel developing around the world as we travel here and there speaking and presenting to families; and we mentioned the new online course we were about to start called Grandparenting 101. (See that article here )
Regarding this issue, we thought it was about time for an update on the course and on the movement, because we have learned a lot about the power and enthusiasm of Grandparents during these past few months. The bottom line is that there is huge (and ever-growing) interest out there in the art and skill of good, difference- making grandparenting
had a wonderfully successful launch and more than a thousand grandparents are now participating with more registering every day, and they receive materials not only from us but from several of the other “Grandparenting Resources” that was featured in GRAND’s last issue.
Grandparenting 101 is a six-month course with a Zoom seminar each month and weekly emails of materials and links that help us develop strategies and ideas for making a positive difference in our grandkids’ lives and in our three-generation families. The course
Grandparents can join at any time at www.Grandparenting101.com , and can choose to pay a modest amount to help cover expenses or to register for free if they cannot afford it. The curriculum is extensive, ( see here ) and has a special appeal to the kind of highly involved grandparents that subscribe to GRAND.
