Play dates are usually for children. Just because this
child is approaching 77 does not mean that hide and seek is
not in the cards. Or building a fort with a blanket and oddly
shaped pillows. Or colouring dinosaurs and pterodactyls.
Once in a while the great grandparent does
surface when spelling words and teaching
letter shapes are needed, when the eldest
great grand daughter, just over 5 years old,
is in need of coaching. Of course, the younger sister,
flitted about like a little fairy, happy, scribbling colours
and just wanting to be part of all the fun.
“It’s the things we play with and the people who help us
play that make a great difference in our lives.”
~ Fred Rogers, 1928 - 2003
