Five Fun Activities Both You and Your Grandchildren Can Enjoy

It’s not always easy to spend as much time as you’d like with your grandchildren. On the one afternoon you have free, they have a soccer match out of town. On the weekend they’re home from college, you’ve already scheduled a trip with your best friend.
With families busier and more mobile than ever before, finding time for your grandchildren can be a real challenge, as can finding activities that you all enjoy.
Fortunately, Eagle’s Trace makes entertaining the younger generation easier than ever. Whether your visitors are the elementary-school set or teenagers, you’ll find plenty of fun for everyone.
Here are just a few of the activities that Eagle’s Trace grandparents and their grandchildren enjoy:
1. Dive in at the Aquatics Center.
Your young guests are welcome to splash around in the enclosed, all-season swimming pool when there’s not an exercise class or designated lap swim underway. Challenge that young swimmer to a race, or the athlete in the family to a game of water volleyball.
2. Enjoy a meal at one of our two restaurants.
The restaurants at Eagle’s Trace are a fun treat for visiting grandchildren, and extremely convenient and easy for you. Dig into a casual lunch at The Eagle’s Roost Café, where even the most finicky eaters are sure to find something to tempt their taste buds. Or, show off the next generation to your friends over a cozy dinner in The Garden Room restaurant.
3. Shoot some pool or play a game of cards.
Challenge the family hustler to some friendly competition with a game of pocket billiards. Or teach that budding card shark a few of your old tricks at a favorite card game. If you’re feeling generous, you might even let them win a hand or two.
4. Pamper your little Miss at the Day Spa.
