We celebrate National Grandparents Day on the first Sunday after Labor Day.
This year, the date falls on September 8.
Like Mother’s day and Father’s day we also have a whole day dedicated to our grandparents. Grandparents and children have a special connection that is proven to both make grandparents live longer, and also make children more emotionally resilient.
Grandparents Day is an opportunity to treasure that connection and spend some quality family time together.
On National Grandparents Day, we celebrate the important role grandparents play in providing love, wisdom, and strength to their families, and fostering greater understanding across generations.
Grandmas and grandpas, abuelas y abuelos, nanas and pop-pops — through their wisdom, their perseverance, and their unconditional love — strengthen our family bonds.
They share with us who we are, where we come from, and the experiences that have shaped their lives, and, in many cases, shaped our Nation.
