When is Grandmother's Day celebrated in Ukraine?

There are several dates on which the wisest, dearest, and most beloved family members are honored. Let's find out how this holiday originated and how it should be celebrated.

October 28 – Grandparent's Day in 2023

The ancient Slavs honored their family and always celebrated holidays associated with family. At the end of October, they lit candles and performed rituals honoring Autumn Grandfathers' Day. Our ancestors believed that the memory of loved ones holds the family together and connects generations, and through respect, a bond is formed that protects each family member.

The specific date of the celebration was secured thanks to the resourcefulness of the Dutch flower company, which held an event on October 28 in support of older people. The event was aimed at strengthening ties between generations. The idea caught on, and the date was firmly established in European countries and America.

Unlike other similar holidays, October 28 is celebrated as Grandparents' Day, so it would be fitting to prepare at least a small gift as a sign of respect for those who are always ready to share knowledge, experience, and warmth with their children and grandchildren.

Thus, the holiday of grandmothers in Ukraine is celebrated yearly to prove to the older generation that they are an essential part of the life of every family. However, not all elderly people have grandchildren. In cases where you want to congratulate an elderly person, you can celebrate another holiday described below.

October 1st – International Day of Older Persons

Since 1991, the International Day of Older Persons has been celebrated on this date according to UN resolution. The need to create a memorable event arose after studies showed that the world's population is rapidly aging. It is necessary not only to honor people of the older generation but also to give them the maximum number of opportunities for their whole lives and participation in solving public issues. Since then, many universities worldwide have begun to actively accept older people as students and public organizations have begun to hold festivals and events aimed at emphasizing the older generation's problems.

You must show that you love your grandparents and respect their experience, world vision, and desire to care for loved ones and protect and support them. A great idea would be to give a bouquet—buy one for grandparents or order delivery.

July 26 – Grandmothers' Day, according to the Christian calendar

Believers congratulate the older generation on July 26 since, on this day, the Catholic liturgy honors the memory of Saints Joachim and Anna, the parents of the Virgin Mary, thereby recognizing the important role of grandparents in the life of Jesus Christ.

What to give to grandparents

Family holidays are an excellent chance to express gratitude and love. Choosing a gift can be difficult, but with our ideas, you can find the right option to bring joy and warmth to your loved ones.

• A basket of fruits or groceries is one of the most popular gifts for grandparents and always causes delight. Combining aromatic fruits, healthy nuts, delicate cheeses, delicious sweets, and healthy products will allow you to enjoy a tasty and nutritious treat while remembering your beloved grandchildren.
• A bouquet with delivery is an excellent option as a gift for your beloved grandmother. Please choose the most charming buds from our assortment; the couriers will deliver them straight to the door. If the recipient does not object, they will capture the moment of delivery in a photo or video.
• Potted flower: If your grandparents love nature and gardening, a gift of an elegant orchid, festive hydrangea, or exquisite bamboo would be ideal. This option will add comfort and freshness to the room and allow you to look after the plants without leaving home.
• The Eternal Rose is a symbol of endless love and respect. This flower will remain fresh for many years, reminding your loved ones of you.
• Custom tea set or cake. Perhaps your grandparents love to welcome guests. In this case, a set of high-quality cookies or a cake delivered will be an ideal gift. Choose a variety of sweets, chocolates, or other treats to allow your relatives to enjoy the cozy ritual of drinking tea with loved ones.
• A jar of red caviar is a luxurious gift, whether in addition to other options or on its own. This delicacy will please your loved ones and make an excellent decoration for the holiday table.
• Give a certificate for purchase at a hardware store. For grandparents passionate about modern technology, give a certificate for purchase at an electronics store. This will allow them to choose what they have long wanted and immerse themselves in the exciting world of new opportunities and entertainment.

On Grandparents Day 2023, the choice of gift plays a unique role. It is essential to decide on an option that will speak about your attention, respect, and sincerity of feelings. Be attentive to your loved ones' preferences, and your sign of attention will become an unforgettable symbol of devotion and care.
