SHARE AND ENJOY MEDIA WITH YOUR GRANDKIDS

5 Easy TipsShare your favorite classic TV shows and movies. Older films and TV shows offer the chance to talk about everything from hairstyles to history.

Collaborate on an interactive scrapbook. Use an app such as Book Creator to bring stories from your past to life. Kids can interview you and add photos, music, and more.

Let them teach you something. Whether they’re into gaming, coding, photo editing, or another digital hobby, they’ll love to show you everything about it.

Connect through gaming. Play social games such as Words with Friends and Trivia Crack, or take turns on a classic such as Angry Birds.

Video-chat. FaceTime, Skype, and Google Hangouts let you bond even when you can’t be there.
