I do know about the family pool which will be great, but I think they would love to play games and maybe even do arts and crafts. Thank you anyone who can steer me in the right direction.
Go to a regional rec center and get them passes. Of course they can play games. Check out the schedule for craft gatherings. Remember that just being with you is pretty great. Stock up on all the candy and cookies their parents may not like. Get out the photo albums of their folks and share a few things with them about their perfect parents......I think people love to see grandchildren visit. I know we do.

Our grandson is coming too next month and he asked for Bingo and to sit in with the Beatlemaniacs. He is 24 and loves to come visit us here. He will want to go to Wildwood and look for old vinyl records. And swim in our pool and I will bake and he will play golf....oh such fun. He likes to hang out at Barnes and Noble and to play Bocce and to go to the squares with us.
