Top Ways to Spend More Quality Time with Grandparents

Quality time with the grandparents has several benefits, particularly for your younger children, as it helps to create a strong family bond. But with the distance between family members and busy schedules leading to difficult timings, spending quality time with loved ones can be much harder. To help you, we have compiled a list of some of the top ways that you can spend quality time with your grandparents as a family. 

Create A Memory Box Together 

One way that you can spend more quality time with your grandparents is to make a memory box together. Whether this is using photos or family heirlooms, this is a great way to enjoy time with your grandparents and create something that you can add to over the years. It is important not to rush this as these are memories that you can all look back on in the future. This is an amazing activity that can be done with all the grandkids to keep them occupied and enjoy some time together as you do so.

Learn a Skill Together 

Learning a skill is a crucial part of growing up for your children, so why not make it a family challenge? By choosing a skill and setting a monthly challenge, this is a great way to get the whole family involved, even your grandparents. Whether it is reading a set number of books, mastering a skill such as knitting or learning a new dance move, you can all enjoy a family-friendly activity together. These can be altered and changed every month to cater to the development of a wide range of skills.

Get Creative in The Kitchen 

For those children and family members that are slightly older, cooking can be the best way to bond with your older relatives. Whether it is sharing family recipes or finding one in a cookbook that you would want to try together, you can make several amazing creations with your family members. This is a great way to learn a new skill and discover amazing family recipes by learning the techniques directly from your grandparents.  

Organise a Family Game Night 

Another way that you can spend some time together with your grandparents is a family game night. With classic card games as well as board games such as Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit, you can get the whole family involved and enjoy a night together. Whether this is one a week or once a month, this is a great way to try a wide range of different games that cater to several different age groups. This is an amazing opportunity to teach your family to play many of the numerous board games that are available. 

Have A Back Garden Picnic 

If you know that your grandparents are visiting for the day, why not make it an amazing event. Get the whole family together and put together a backyard picnic. Get started on cooking all their favourite foods and make beverages that you know they will love and enjoy for a relaxing afternoon in the garden. Why not add some outdoor garden games as well such as hoopla or croquet and make it an event that they will love that gets the whole family involved. This will not only make them feel special but will make for a great photo opportunity for you to look back on. 

Regardless of how much time you have or the distance between you, there are several ways that you can spend time with your grandparents and enjoy family time. There is no better time like the present to get in contact with a loved one.
