Make some awesome loaded Sundays

When you are feeling old it is important to get your spirits up and keep them up. Even if you live in a MI assisted living building or in one of the many Michigan senior living communities, it is important to stay happy and upbeat. A great way to do this is to spend time with your grandchildren, even if they are getting older themselves seeing family is important. These are a few tips on things you can do just in case you are having trouble coming up with ideas.trick cards

Make some awesome loaded Sundays. The goal here is not to spoil them (much) but to make them happy and have fun.
Stare up at the clouds and make up stories about what you see. This can be easier for the younger grand kids but even the older ones aren't too old to act young again.
Find a good book to read and take turns reading chapters out loud. Reading is a great exercise to stimulate the mind. Keep the topic appropriate to the age group and keep them interested.
Go swimming. Even if you don't have a pool, go to a lake. Finding a new lake in the area that they have never been too makes it a new experience. You can even let them bury you in the sand.
Go to the museum together. Finding new exhibits to see and view creates a unique experience for the both of you.
Ride a roller coaster. If you are up for this going to a local roller coaster park like Cedar Point is perfect for the older grand kids.
Go to the park and fly a kite. This is fun for all ages and is not very strenuous.
Teach them your favorite game from when you were young, like marbles or pick-up sticks. A board game tournament is also acceptable.marked cards tricks

Collect fireflies in a jar. Just be sure to poke some holes in the top so you don't wake up to lots of dead bugs. Let them go afterwards.
Grab some flashlights and start up some impromptu flash light tag.
Find a new fall season of a TV show that you both love and devout some time each week to watching the entirety of it together.
Watch the sunset together.
Find a celestial calendar and watch a meteor shower or eclipse together.
Play card games. Old maid and go fish are great for the younger kids and hearts, euchre, or poker for the older kids. You can bet with Cheetos.
