Grand-Friends

Once a month we visit a Seniors Lodge to share stories
and songs with our grand-friends.

Our visits offer us an opportunity to enjoy each others
company and share our learning.

Today we started a project “Planting a Promise”.
sept 30 009 A daffodil bulb has the
           promise of a flower deep inside.

When we plant it, the promise is there that it will
         grow in the spring.

We drew pictures of what we think the flowers will
look like and gave them to our grand friends.

Then it was time to sing and dance,

           share a story,
sept 30 039 sept 30 042
            and play a game.

Visiting with the seniors helps us understand each other. 
How we are the same and how we are different? 
Our visits help us build compassion.
