Play Good Old Fashion Games

Tip # 9 Teach your grandchildren to play board games and card games. It will seem low tech to them but, they will quickly discover how much fun something so simple can be. I can't tell you how many nine year old children I have taught to play checkers, and Scrable at school because no one had ever taught them to play before. They enjoy the friendly competition with each other and it helps them develop better social skills. So teach them to play board games and card games, if nothing else they will appreciate what you taught them when they lose power at their house and need something to do.
