Do Your Grandkids Need To Practice Their Good Sportsmanship AND Phonics Skills?

Words With Friends Plus Encouraging Bible Verses Spell A Fun Way for The Sandwich Generation Grandparents and Grandkids!

Our Sandwich Generation family has some strong competitive genes, including my grandkids! They come by it honestly from both sides, so I can't complain. But I do work hard to couple that drive with practicing positive encouragement and good sportsmanship. We just started playing the enjoyable and addictive Words With Friends game apps and, in addition to the fun phonics and reading activities it provides, it's also been a great opportunity to work on winning AND losing gracefully.

Words with Friends is one of the best apps I have found for playing with grandkids AND learning reading and sounding out words- and can be combined with encouraging Bible verses to remind them how to play it

Encourage one another and build up one another.  1 Thessalonians 5:11

I confess, we are definitely NOT perfect at it, but we're sure having fun practicing! :)  For more encouraging Bible verses for all of us in the Sandwich Generation, from senior parents to grandkids, check out Internet Cafe Devotions on this Word-Filled Wednesday. And…
