What do you get for the family member who has everything? Wonderful memories! Every year I struggle with what to get my parents for birthdays, holidays, or just because. I know that what they want most is to spend time with me, so I usually end up taking them to dinner, a comedy show, or finding some experience we can share together. Now that I have a daughter and they have a granddaughter, they want to make memories with her too. So, I compiled a list of photo opportunities that will create and record memories of my daughter with her grandparents. This free printable paired with a nice photo album is a thoughtful and meaningful gift idea for any family member.

The Gift Idea Inspo
The first list I made was tailored specifically to my dad’s 70th birthday. He’s mentioned on multiple occasions that he wants to take my daughter to the zoo when she is old enough and is excited about the fun they will get into. My dad (Ruby’s Grampa) has everything he could ever want and since we ended up going out to dinner with the whole family to celebrate him, I wanted to get him something that would create memories with his first grandchild, but also something tangible he could open at the restaurant. That’s where I came up with 70 moments.
Below you will find a list that is perfect for a grandparent, parent, or aunt/uncle. Plus, I made some blank templates for you to create your own with as many or as little moments that make sense for your loved one. I made them with a few different graphics to choose from, but the list is, in my opinion, gender neutral for both the child and family member receiving the gift.
Free Printables
Check out the different printables find the link to download below. You will download all pages, but be sure to print just the one you want to use. I printed mine on cardstock and hot glued it to carboard, but you can print on virtually anything to match your photo album or style.
Photo Album Gift Idea
Here are links to some fun, family photo albums from Amazon that might just be perfect for your gift! I chose one that had a leather look and imprinted with a tree and the word family for a more masculine, but sentimental look!
