Just keep fading back and forth between grandpa and the kids and the children acting out his memories. The kids keep begging for more of what he remembers, talk about stringing popcorn and family and simple family memories and the joy of being together and celebrating the real reason for Christmas, of God sending his Son. At the end have Grandpa explain salvation and that Christmas is just the beginning of the story, it will end many years later on a cross. He tells the grand kids the present he wants to receive most of all is to have them love the Lord. I have no greater Joy than to know my children are walking in the truth.
Mom arrives home and they say goodnight.
