Tip of the Day 8/7/11

A Toy Box is an essential component of a Grandparents home. Keep a toy box filled with all ages of toys. You will discover the older kids love to play with the little kids toys as well as their own age. Books for all ages are important as well as outside toys. We keep a scooter, balls, beach toys, sidewalk chalk etc. for their use. I have 2 toy boxes, plus a shelf of books just for the kids. My older grands love to look through all of my books and borrow them from "Grandma Dee's Library." They all know right where to go for the things they can play with. Hope you have lots of special times with your precious kids and grands this summer.
