GRAND Magazine - Spring 2022 - 30
From the mouth's of babes, here is a video made by a grandson to help his grandparents have more fun with their long-distance video chats

There is a lot of value contained in
strong and positive relationships between
grandparents and grandchildren. It sounds
cliché, but this relationship is indeed the
gift that keeps on giving.
Positive relationships with a grandparent
have been associated with fewer symptoms
of depression, higher reports of
well-being in older grandchildren, and less
ageist views towards older adults in even
very young grandchildren.
Now, of course, having a strong and
positive relationship is easier said than
done, especially from a distance. But it's
not impossible.
So how can you show up in a meaningful
way as a long-distance grandparent
and stay inspired to keep connecting -
even if you aren't getting much back?
Commit to doing at least one thing on
a regular basis so you can be a consistent
and loving connection your grandchild can
rely upon.
