  The relationship between a grandchild and grandparent is a very special one. While grandparents act as an authority figure and provide unconditional love, they also get to spoil their grandkids in a way parents simply can't. But beyond that, grandparents also wield incredible influence. Here are ten things grandchildren can -- should -- learn from their grandparents.

  1.History

  Kids may hate having to learn about history in schoolbooks and from old paintings and pictures, but they may find it more interesting to learn from someone who actually lived it. Children can find out what it was like to grow up during the Great Depression or World War II from grandparents who experienced life during that time. Personal stories are much easier to remember than lists of names and dates from books.

  2.A New Skill Set

  When they were growing up, many senior citizens learned skills such as sewing, gardening, baking, farming or woodworking. These are great things to pass on to grandchildren, as they may not be commonly taught anymore, but are still very useful talents to possess.

  3.Wisdom

  Turn to grandparents for life lessons and other advice because they've often lived through the same or similar experience -- possibly more than once. "Knowing how my grandparents dealt with problems in their lives, and knowing that they got through everything just fine, makes me feel that I'll be okay, too," Bishop says.

  4.Family History

  Everyone has those old black and white pictures of unknown relatives, but grandma and grandpa may actually know where they were taken and who those mystery people are. Ask about your family tree -- who are their siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles? You'll know about tons of family members you didn't know existed. And maybe they can share some funny stories about your parents when they were young. "It's really interesting to learn about the people who came before me and made my family who we are today," says Katie Matza of Shreveport, Louisiana.

  5.Humor

  Teasing is a part of growing up, but when it comes from someone who loves you unconditionally, it's way more enjoyable. Learning jokes and pranks from your grandparents is a great way to bond with them and understand how to react if you're teased by your own peer group. Maybe your grandparents will even help you play a prank on your parents.

  6.Listening

  Many young children are used to their parents listening to everything they say, and they expect others will do the same. While this is often normal for young children, it's important for them to learn how to listen to others as well.
