For my mom - after retirement

My mom is the best ever - obviously. :) She retired not too long ago after working as an aid in the elementary school system for many years. She' happy to have her days to herself to help with the grandkids and be there for my special needs brother. But she's bored. What kind of jobs could my mother take on to get her out of the house? She wants to shy away from anything that would take up her weekends. Any good ideas for my amazing mom, ladies? Thank you!

Have you thought about suggesting working at a non-profit? It's not retail so there shouldn't be any weekend work and her people-skills might be a great fit to work as a receptionist or office admin

This is a great idea. If she still has a passion for teaching, how about tutoring or substitute teaching? Perhaps even working as an instructor at a university.
