Having great fun with your grandchildren





Bored with the usual family dinners with your grandchildren? Looking for new ideas? Be the most popular grandparents around with these fun-filled family activities!


Nostalgic Handicrafts
Some handmade items are timeless. Your childhood handicrafts could well take centre stage now! Remember those treasured articles you used to make – from bean bags to kites and origami? Try demonstrating these crafts and teaching your grandchildren how to create their own unique items!

From the Kitchen with Love
Food from the toy kitchen won't come close to the food you cook. Apart from enrolling in parent-child cooking workshops, you can also try cooking at home with your grandkids. Choose simple recipes, such as sweet dumplings, fruit or clay-pot puddings and let the kids take responsibility for the simple and easy parts. They will definitely fall in love with cooking.

Golden Oldies Singing
Do you love singing? Have you ever invited your grandchildren to a karaoke session? In addition to singing your favourite oldies, there are all the newly released versions of the golden oldies by today's young pop idols. Make sure you practice before you sing along with your grandchildren, and give them a pleasant surprise.

Want to bond with your children and grandchildren? The secret is to never say "no". When they invite you to play a new game, give it a go? You may end up falling in love with their games too.
