in elementary school we had Old-Fashioned Day when everybody brought their grandparents to school and wore short pants and played marbles and panned for gold like the "olden times". I was super excited to chase a hoop with a stick only to learn that it's pretty fucking boring.

we would have a special lunch with the grandparents, where we'd give them all handmade cards. and a special assembly with them, in an auditorium, where they could sit down of course.
