What are the best things about going to your grandparents house?

This is a question that is best answered by my grandchildren.
I hope they enjoy the change in toys, space, landscape, and rules.  They come here to have fun unless they have been told by parents that today is a Help Grandma Day then they have chores to help grandma with things she can't do anymore.  Grandma lost her muscle shirt and her climbing shoes the last time the basement flooded.
She can still play games and talk hopefully imparting some wisdom and receiving some in return.  There are different games here.  I have played many games of Gold Fish and War.  Sat on the floor for marathon sessions of Candyland.  Tried to flick ants in pants for a game of a similar name.  Assembled bugs while rolling dice.  We have had concerts of piano and drums.  My favorite game was watching the pirate ships and whales in the pond.  Unfortunately, there is no one of the appropriate age to play with me anymore.
Grandma always has candy in a special cupboard in the kitchen that is available to all who come.  Some of the grandchildren like this the best.
