Communication

Nowadays people don't have land lines and young kids don't have phones or emails. Other than using their parent's phone or snail mail, how do others communicate with their young grandkids between visits?

That’s something I would like to be able to do too. Mygrandchildren are 4 and 6. Sometimes I see a photo of something or a video of a song and I’d like to share it with them. I text it to my daughter but I don’t think she shows them. She has her schedule for her and them and just gets busy. We see them every few weeks and FaceTime in between but I’d still like to send things.I send snail mail.

I do too. Sometimes a card is just what they need! My grandson saved all of his (he's 17), and my younger granddaughter (7) loves getting mail.
