NANA SAYS ENJOY TIMES WITH GRANDCHILDREN

Taking time to have sleepovers, little outings, going to movies can be some simple activities with the grandchildrn. Offering some parental relief to the parents for a needed break. Most children are at camp or if older having summer jobs or volunteer experiences. A backyard can be an adventure with spots to make a little fort. Of course children will fight over the same stick to use as a toy! Walks and talks. Ball. My grandchildren love the pine cones. So what to make with them becomes creative! Collected some feathers recently to use in some crafts!  A trip to the Dairy Queen for an ice cream- even for those with nut allergies! Plain cones work! Accompanying the children with the grandchildren on day trips helps with another pair of adult eyes on all of them. Getting out of the house so the outdoors can be enjoyed. And put down the gadgets!
