I bet your grandkids are glued to their fancy screens, getting lost in Instabook(?) and FaceTok(?), or whatever the latest social media craze is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, below, we&#8217;ve got some ideas on how to get their eyes off that screen \u2013 and it involves some good old-fashioned fun with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-be-the-coolest-grandparent-on-the-block\">How To Be The Coolest Grandparent on the Block<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a video featuring 5 incredibly fun, non-screen activities that you can do with your <a href=\"https:\/\/seniortechcafe.com\/ro\/your-guide-to-digital-playdates-with-your-grandkids\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"50\">grandkids<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And don\u2019t worry, these aren&#8217;t your typical &#8220;let&#8217;s play bingo and take a nap&#8221; kind of activities. No, no, no.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the kinds of activities that will make your grandkids think you&#8217;re the coolest grandparent on the block. They&#8217;ll be telling all their friends, &#8220;<em>You won&#8217;t believe what my grandma\/grandpa and I did today!<\/em>&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, before they can say &#8220;Just one more level,&#8221; grab a cookie (or six), and stash the screens. These activities are guaranteed to spark joy, create chaos (the good kind), and make you the best grandparent ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, sometimes the best tech tip is knowing when to turn the darn thing off and get back to the basics. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe
