Let's Go See Our Grandparents
Tune: Take Me Out to the Ball Game
Let's go see our grandparents,
Take us there for a while.
Mommy and Daddy both need a break.
We'll play games and we'll stay up real late!
Oh, we want to thank our grandparents
For all the things that they do,
So it's time..to..say you're the best
And that we love you!

Grandma's Spectacles - Fingerplay
These are grandma's spectacles,
(make circles around eyes with fingers)
This is grandma's hat. (use both hands and cup on head)
This is the way she folds her hands, (fold hands)
And puts them on her lap. (put hands in lap)
These are Grandpa's spectacles
This is Grandpa's hat
And this is the way he folds his arms
And THAT IS THAT!
