Grandparents "go to work" in the summer

author:Qilu one point

Summer vacation is coming, and the elderly have gradually joined the team with babies. In addition to taking care of the daily life of the grandchildren, there is also an important task, which is to take them to extracurricular classes, which everyone refers to as "going to work". Many grandparents did not idle during the class of their grandchildren, and it was meaningful to spend the "work" time happily and meaningfully.

<b>Chat stress reduction is also a kind of social</b>

Lele, an 8-year-old in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, was sent to his grandmother Wang Guizhi's house as soon as he was on summer vacation. Wang Guizhi, 62, joked: "From today on, I will officially go to work." ”

Early the next morning, Wang Guizhi rode on an electric car to take Lele to the training school to learn English. Sending Le Le into the classroom, Wang Guizhi waited in the campus, "Home is not close to the school, and it will not be long before you go back to pick it up."

When she went to the parents' rest area and sat down, Wang Guizhi found that many of the parents waiting were peers. Everyone chatted in the north and south, children, grandchildren, tourism, square dance, vegetable market... There are many topics in particular.

The most talked about that day was the grandson's summer study arrangement. Everyone originally spat that they had to "go to work" to take care of the bitter water of their grandchildren, but when they talked deeper, they felt that their bitterness was nothing, and the little grandchildren who went to extracurricular classes endlessly were bitter, and the children who were busy running to support their families were bitter. We old people, just take advantage of the grandchildren in class to get together to chat, complain about pain, very stress-reducing, but also a kind of social bar.

It's about to end class, everyone adds WeChat to each other, forms a chat group, and agrees to talk again when they are free.

<b>Children learn table tennis and learn yoga</b>

Before giving her granddaughter Qinqin a table tennis class, 60-year-old Lin Airu asked her daughter to find a venue with a supporting yoga class. "I don't want to waste time waiting." Lin Airu said that she has recently become interested in yoga and feels that the time to learn table tennis is a good opportunity to practice yoga.

The daughter quickly found her favorite venue. On the first day of class, the qinqin was sent to the table tennis class, and Lin Airu went to the yoga class. "Originally, I was worried that there were no elderly people practicing yoga, but when I went there, I found that the elderly could account for half of the country." Lin Airu's mentality was quite calm.

During the break, Lin Airu did not have the good sense to take the initiative to chat with other old people, but when it was time to pick up her granddaughter, she and two other classmates walked to the door of the table tennis classroom together. Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and they became acquaintances. After chatting for two sentences, I learned that the situation of the two classmates was the same as hers, and they all wanted to find something interesting for themselves to do when they accompanied their grandchildren.

At this point, there is really a companion. Let's discuss the newly learned movements together, and talk about the progress of the grandchildren's table tennis learning..." These days I am particularly happy, not only learning yoga, but also finding two like-minded friends. Lin Airu said.

<b>Go for a swim with your grandchildren</b>

7-year-old Hao Hao had just taken a holiday and was sent to his grandmother Chen Lan's house. The 65-year-old Chen Lan has worked as a soldier and has developed good swimming skills. When Haohao was four or five years old, Chen Lan would occasionally take him to the swimming pool to play in the water, and at that time he said that he would learn to swim and compete with his grandmother in the future.

This year, Hao Hao can apply for swimming lessons. Haohao's father, who is busy with work, deliberately chose the swimming pool near Chen Lan's home. Hearing this news, Chen Lan's first reaction was that he was going to take the baby again during the summer vacation, and he really had a bit of a headache.

That night, Chen Lan lay on the bed and thought left and right, thinking that he should swim with Haohao, first, to pass the time, second, to motivate children to study hard, and third, to exercise. Early the next morning, Chen Lan bought himself a swimming card at the swimming pool that Haohao had signed up for.

Every day, Hao Hao trains with the coach on one side of the swimming pool, and Chen Lan swims on the other side of the pool.

Now, looking at Haohao's breaststroke movements have been basically mastered, Chen Lan said to Haohao: "Grandma knows that you are about to learn, and is waiting for you to challenge at any time." ”

Although he likes to swim, Chen Lan rarely goes alone: "Now it seems that I swim with my grandson, but in fact, my grandson takes me to swim." Not only exercised, but also accompanied the child, killing two birds with one stone. ”
