Instead of a movie Sept. 8, Cynthia and Charles Rogers and Leathers decided to switch up their Friday night plans.
They attended Robert E. Willis Elementary School's first Games with Grandparents. Leathers is a first grader at the school.
"We always love to have fun Friday nights with our granddaughter, and this is another great opportunity," Cynthia Rogers said. "We are excited about the games and having the chance to meet her friends and teachers."
Dozens of grandparents played games, ate ice cream and made crafts with their grandchildren.
Paul Downie, a third grader, said he loved Games with Grandparents because he was able to spend time with his grandma, Jill Downie.
"I like that I get to be with my family," he said.
