Hostess Gifts for Grandmas

My mom and MIL are hosting a baby shower for me in about a month. Any ideas of something nice to give to say "thank you"?

Ideally, it needs to be something I can bring with me on my cross country flight for the shower (so nothing too big and nothing liquid - I'm not checking a bag). Also, not crazy on the massage gift certificate idea.

I attended a shower hosted by the MIL of the MTB. the MTB gave her MIL one of these figurines as a hostess gift at the end of the shower. I thought it was very sweet.

This is my parents first grand baby, so we're getting them t shirts that say "grandparent since 2013". My dad is a teacher and enjoys wearing shirts like that on dress down days. And it's something they can wear to the hospital for this,
