I am “that” grandma—the pajama grandma! They get so much, and between their age and/or home location, it is impossible for me to know what they would like. So, years ago, I decided on pajamas. Everyone can use them, if you have more than one it is OK, and if your grandma picks out dumb ones (or really cool ones ) no one really needs to know about it. I see so many advantages!
This year there was a unicorn pair— the recipient seemed pleased. There was a fishing themed pair, a pair that was “large” which provoked a comment from the recipient, and for the oldest— a pair of men’s small separates. It was my first foray into buying pajamas for a larger size! It was a challenge!
There were lots of goofy holiday pajamas—not what I was looking for. Flannel—nope. Fleece…definitely not. Finally found a pair of pajama pants in a plaid, with a “sleep shirt” that coordinated. There isn't much selection in mens pajamas—probably because they are not in high demand. Think I will have to start sooner next year—- which means April, as three need summer pajamas all year long…
Oh, the challenges of being the pajama grandma!
