Friday was Grandparent Day at Little Lambs Daycare Center in Lincoln. During the morning, children enjoyed sharing their learning experiences with their grandparents. The group played games together, drew pictures, and did other fun activities such as finding colors and identifying them. In one instance, the children went about their classroom collecting items that were colored green and bringing the pieces to grandma or grandpa for safe keeping.

Outside at playtime, the yard was a flury of activity as youngsters and their older guests played various games.

Around the school, inside and out, the sound of happy children was almost overwhelming, as kids laughed and squealed while playing with their grandparents.

At lunch time everyone enjoyed a cheesburger lunch.

Gretchen Jones has been Little Lambs director more than 20 years. She has become an expert at planning fun days for the children and their family members, and looks forward to each event that draws children together with their older family members to create bonds that will stay with them well into their formative years.
