Kids Needing Glasses

I was six years old, in first grade and loved my red 

and white striped glasses. Being allowed to pick out

my first pair made all the difference in the world.

Being able to read the blackboard like all the other

kids, helped a lot, too! It was great to learn my

grandson's experience was much the same.

Although, Jude was a bit older when needing his

first pair, he's thrilled with his selection and can't

believe how his world has opened up. His first

hours were spent excitedly discovering everything

readable without the need to squint. Ain't life grand!!

Keep on staying safe and washing those hands!

Drawing Out the Best in Kids

Bringing out large sheets of white paper with drawing supplies is always a hit at Bubbie's house. My grand kids know I can't wait to hang their masterpieces on my fridge, for all to admire.
This fine day my five year old started slow by choosing and sharpening her favorite colored pencils, while my seven year old jumped in, pens first, anxious to get his ideas recorded quickly.
I watched these kids and observed decision making, eye-hand coordination, concentration and imaginative skills developing. They looked at it as the best part of their day...especially since their Bubbie always has their favorite treats sitting by their side. Works for me!
'Till next time,
Bubbie and her grand kids!
