Did you know that even the bravest of grandkids can occasionally get homesick when spending the night at the grandparents, thus entailing a Sandwich Generation granny nanny to drop everything for a peaceful time of purple teddy bears, cuddles and stories?
Did you know that no word in the English language rhymes with orange or purple. So when you are playing a rhyming game with your grandchildren, never suggest those words, unless you want to “mess with their minds” a bit.
Did you know that if you smoke you are inhaling over 4,000 known chemicals in cigarettes – including cyanide, arsenic, and formaldehyde! If you don’t care about that for your own sake, make sure you care about it for the sake of your grandkids. Even second-hand exposure to those kinds of chemicals is dangerous – even the pretty ones that may have a touch of purple!
Did you know that in 2009, Daylight Savings Time starts March 8 and ends November 1. And in 2011, Daylight Savings Time starts March 13 and ends November 6. WHERE does the time go! Hooray – more time for playing tag with those grandkids is right around the corner!
Did you know that Etsy Cottage Style is having a fun and purplicious Cottage Colors Party. I thought that would be fun for you and me so here are my fun purples – mostly centered around fun and purple tinted activities for grandparents and their grandchildren. For more gorgeous purples, be sure to pop over and visit her lovely site.

Wow, you are right about the rhyming purple. Thanks for that knowledge!

Hi Cyndi, Isn’t that a HOOT! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Hmmm, I just might have to try that on my grandkids next time they are giving ME a hard time. HEHEHEHEHE 🙂 Ahhh, then again, I’m such a soft hearted granny nanny, I’d allow schmurple 🙂
I enjoyed my visit to your site, and love the crafts for grandma’s and grandkids. My grandkids live 3 hours away and so they usually come in the summer and spend a week with me and these are great little ideas for them. Thank you so much. I am new at this, so I hope you will visit me too. Have a great day!
You are very welcome, Janet. And I did, indeed, enjoy your lovely site full of my favorite flowers – ROSES 🙂 Have fun this summer with those sweet grandchildren! 🙂
Thanks for joining in on our purple party! Wow, lots of great ideas here!
Hey! So glad you joined in at our party! Love the post! And, your right about the rhymes..I’m not above giving the nieces and nephews that brain wrecker!
Thanks Debbi, I had a lot of purpilicious fun! I must say 🙂
Hehehehehe Melody, I turned my granddaughter loose on it – and guess what, she found rhymes – shmurple and murple 🙂 🙂 🙂
