Tips for new Grandparents

DGC2 loves sorting pegs!

You forget though, don’t you? We’d forgotten the fun of card games like Happy Families’, ‘Pairs’ and ‘Fish’. Now ‘Donkey’ is hilarious all over again.

Well fancy that who would have thunk it.

You Angy or WHAT?!?

I would give anything to do any of these. My grandchildren are 8000 miles away and it’s been 20 months since I’ve seen them

A long time ago for me now but I do remember missing cooking with them and eating the outcome!

My grandson is going to school too in September and after having him 1 day a week since a baby I will really miss our time together.
Amongst other things we’ve done quite a bit of cooking Ie buns,scones and home made pizza that he loves to decorate himself!
If we go out walking we often end up in the village in one of the charity shops where he is able to choose a toy or book that only costs a couple of pounds.
He also loves to play with a bowl or sink full of water and boats or vehicles.
Yes time really does go so quickly ?

Ro60 oh yes leaves and puddles! Endless fun for the Autumn.

I will still see DGD regularly and look forward to her school events now.

Thank you for the lovely comments nice people .

My granddaughter starts primary in September as well, they grow up too quick don't they and we grow older ?

Playing footie with my grandsons, still doing it and they are 10 and 8. Happy times.

I just did the same things that I did for my own children when they were little, they still worked!

A change is a good as a rest - they say. Hope you still have time at the weekends.
Thanks for reminding me - I've got my GD a lot in a few weeks time - when the new one arrives - I'm certainly out of practice over the last year.

Here's a few more: kicking leaves & jumping in puddles

Christmas time I'm looking forward to taking her to a nativity service.

Cooking

The old games - dominoes, draughts, Cludo

Hope you enjoy your return to work and obviously had fun had fun being a grandma Foxglove.
sodapop can’t say anything nice, don’t bother.

No need for rudeness sodapop!

Yes, I'll also be sorry when my GS goes to school Foxglove. They are small for such a short time.

Well fancy that who would have thunk it.
