Crafts are a fun activity on Skype/Facetime. Chase and I did this for Valentine’s
Day. I set it up with Lindsay to have
paper, glue and marshmallows ready. We
started with the Stuffy (see my first post)and I had every pocket filled with fun toys he knows
(Elmo, Nemo, a frog, a truck and a Valentine’s pig). The last one was a bag of marshmallows in Stuffy’s mouth. Lindsay had placed Chase’s
bag of marshmallows on his bed (our normal place when I have a surprise for
him). She drew the heart ahead of time
so he just had to follow the shape. Make
the heart smaller for the younger kids so it doesn’t take too long. You may need to put the heart away until the
glue dries. You don’t want to have to do
this again if your grandchild picks up the paper too soon. We ended with eating the left-over
marshmallows. This was easy to set up
and Chase stayed engaged the whole time.
Win!!
