Getting Your Hands Dirty Was Never So Fun!
We’ve crafted seven fun garden-themed playdates for you to enjoy with your grandkids this summer, and you can do them together even if you live miles apart!
Download this month’s newsletter HERE ! It includes all of the ideas, plus a resource guide so you can assemble your very own Playdatebox to mail to a grandchild. Or, just use the ideas in-person and during FaceTime calls with your grands!
You’ll also find links to some of our favorite gardening blog posts, like:
- How to create a fun Playdate using sun-sensitive paper for making silhouettes of leaf shapes
- How to grow Zinnias “remotely” with a far-away grandchild
- Easy ways to read remotely with a child
And you’ll get information about three of our favorite Grandparent resources:
- A fun subscription from Silverpost that lets you send a monthly printed postcard to a grandchild or grandparent as easily as you send a text message.
- A Zoom Grandparenting Course coming soon from Richard and Linda Eyre.
- An introduction to Kerry Byrne, who manages The LongDistanceGrandparent
website. Dr. Byrne studies the critical connections between grandparents and grandchildren.
Please share these ideas freely with your friends and family. Our goal is to help grandparents and grandchildren create connections that will last a lifetime!
Happy Playing!
