American Sign Language:  "grandparents"

---

GRANDPARENTS:


 

Combine the sign for "grandmother" and "grandfather."
The sign for "grandmother" is made by touching your chin with the thumb of your dominant hand, as when signing "mother."  The dominant hand should be open.  Move your hand forward in two small arches.

The sign for "grandfather" is made by touching your forehead with the thumb of your dominant hand, (the same as when signing "father").  The hand should be open.  Now, move your hand forward in two small arches.
Note: Many people just move the hand forward without the arches.
I've even seen this sign done with the left and right hands simultaneously. One hand signing grandma, the other hand signing grandpa.
