Bursting with excitement over a new pregnancy? Whether you’re planning to announce the happy news to the whole world—or want to keep things under wraps for a little while, the first people many expectant parents choose to tell are the grandparents-to-be. After all, they’ll probably be almost as excited as you are—especially if it happens to be their first grandchild!

Of course, an in-person meetup, a handwritten letter or a snap of the sonogram are all great ways to tell your parents you’re pregnant—but you only get one chance to share this joyous news, so it’s worth putting some time and thought into the big reveal. Looking for inspiration? Here are some of our favorite shoppable pregnancy announcements for grandparents. From adorable gifts to cheeky greeting cards and sentimental keepsakes they’ll treasure forever, these grandparent announcement gifts will make the moment memorable.
