    Poker is fine. Play with potato chips or gold fish crackers.

    A fun kind of puzzle is to deal out 25 random cards and then try to make 5 “pat” hands with them. A pat hand is one that does not need to be drawn to (flush, straight, full house, 4 of a kind). As this is actually very easy to do, adding the rule that all five cards of each hand must be used (disallowing 4 of a kind) makes it a little more challenging. I first saw this on the old TV Western, “Maverick”.

    The boy needs to visit the One Big Happy comic strip. Those grandparents are frequently playing poker with little Ruthie and her brother.
