  • Stay Strong for Your Grandkids: Simple Daily Movement Tips to Prevent Falls
    Apr 16 2026

    In this episode of It’s a Grand Life, host Craig Nash sits down with physical therapist Dr. Dawn Thomas to discuss how grandparents raising grandchildren can stay healthy, mobile, and independent.
    They break down simple, realistic ways to incorporate movement into daily routines—without needing a gym or intense workouts. From improving balance to preventing falls, even just a few minutes of movement multiple times a day can make a meaningful difference.
    This conversation is all about helping caregivers not just get by—but truly enjoy life with their grandkids.
