Seeing the happy grandparents sharing with us left me with a beautiful memory.”
Practicing Spanish is also a good exercise in this activity, since the grandparents are ready to listen and share their experiences. According to Valentin Hertoghe, student in course: “practicing with them is a lot of fun. You not only practice Spanish, you also laugh and learn from their words”.
