written by a class of 8-year-olds)
Grandparents are a
lady and a man who have no little children
of her own.
They like other people's.
Grandparents don't
have to do anything except be there when we
come to see them.
They are so old they shouldn't play hard or
run. It is
good if they drive us to the shops and give us money.

When
they take us for walks, they slow down past things
like pretty leaves
and caterpillars.
They don't say, 'Hurry
up.'

Usually grandmothers
are fat, but not too fat to tie your shoes.
They can take their
teeth and gums out.
Everybody should try
to have a grandmother, especially if you
don't have television
because they are the only grown ups who
like to spend time
with us.
They show us and
talk to us about the color of the flowers and also why we shouldn't step
on 'cracks.'
They wear glasses
and funny underwear.

Grandparents don't have
to be smart.
They have to answer
questions like 'why isn't God married?'
and 'How come dogs
chase cats?'.
They know we should
have snack-time before bedtime and they say
prayers with us every
time and kiss us even when we've acted bad.
 |
When
they read to us, they don't skip. They don't
mind if we ask for
the same story over again..
A grandfather is a
man & a grandmother is a lady!

It's funny when they
bend over, you hear gas leaks and
they blame their
dog.'
A 6 year old was asked
where his grandma lives. "Oh,"
he said, "she lives
at the airport and when we want her we
just go get her.
Then when we're done having her visit,
we take her back
to the airport."
Grandpa is the smartest
man on earth! He teaches me good
things, but I don't
see him emough to get as smart as him.
