Grandmother Achievement Day

Being a grandmother is a great happiness. That’s what most women around the world think. Behind the shoulders of our beloved and unique grandmothers is a huge life, in which there were many achievements and even if for someone they were not significant, for native people it is important. In honor of the wise good and such relatives, Grandmother Achievement Day was established.

History

Grandma sounds different in all languages, but the meaning and significance of this word does not change. Always friendly, joyfully greeting grandchildren, and ready to do even the impossible for them. Is it possible to imagine childhood without fragrant grandmother’s pies or fairy tales at night, beautiful songs and fun games.

The name of the person who proposed to introduce Grandmother Achievement Day into the calendar of holidays remained a mystery, but this does not prevent everyone who has a grandmother from celebrating this day.
