Generally grandmothers with pleasure agree to help and sit with grandchildren, they want to communicate to kids too. Before handing the child to the grandmother, make sure that you thought over all important points.
Instruction
1. Make necessary recommendations about leaving and food of the kid. Do not give in on a talk that the grandmother grew up you (or your spouse) therefore and will cope with grandchildren perfectly. All had it long ago and ideas of education of children different. Therefore intelligibly explain to the grandmother all important points and nuances, and write down them on paper even better.
2. On the time spent of the child on a visit provide it to all necessary. Spare things, favourite food and toys have to be available and if necessary the grandmother without problems could change clothes and feed the kid. Think over leisure of the child. Books, a coloring and the developing games will help the grandmother to entertain the grandson.

4. If the grandmother sits with the grandson at your place, do not load her with additional tasks on economy. Too active person ask not "to rake your terrible blockages", let better her be engaged in the child. From couple of dirty plates and dust on a case of a wall of your apartment will not fail, but house efforts can distract the grandmother from the grandson.
5. If the child is ill, give accurate instructions for intake of medicines. Ask the grandmother to follow the recommendations of the doctor and the treatment appointed by him, but not to experiment in your absence with recipes of traditional medicine. Health of the child – it is very important and you should not treat it negligently.
6. Surely sincerely thank the grandmother for the help. Do not abuse its non-failure operation, the grandmother though native to you the person, but it has the life and the affairs too. Besides she is not obliged to raise your children. You ask her about service only in emergency cases. Not to allow the main thing that pleasant communication with the grandson developed into a sad duty.
