Pages for little and big children
This set includes friendly scenes of grandparents and children sharing everyday moments. Younger children can colour large, clear pictures of hugs, walks, story time and simple gifts. Older children can work on busier scenes with furniture, plants, clothing and small details. Some pages leave room for a child to add a message, name or drawing. The pictures suit family conversations about grandparents who live nearby, in another city or in a different country.
Use the pages for a family activity
At home, let your child choose a page, then talk about a favourite memory with a grandparent. A child can colour a picture, add a short greeting and give it as a card or keep it near a family photo. In class, use the pages during a circle-time discussion about older family members, kindness and listening. Children can share one thing they enjoy doing with a grandparent, then display their finished work on a classroom board.
Stories, skills and family traditions
Grandparents often have stories about their childhood, the places they have lived and the games they played. They may know family recipes, songs, prayers, craft skills or words from a regional language. Invite your child to ask a grandparent about one old game, one favourite food and one family tradition. The answers can become a small home book with drawings and labels. This works well in India, where grandparents may share customs, languages and memories from a different part of the country.
Lumi's tips
- For younger children, offer two or three colours at a time and talk about who is in the picture.
- For older children, ask them to add a background, a greeting and three details from a real family memory.
- Keep it personal by turning a finished picture into a card, video-call backdrop or small gift for a grandparent.
