From the Author:

It’s not every day that you see family members working together, sharing dreams and making them happen. And perhaps it is especially rare when that chemistry is at work between two "in laws." But we’ve been blessed with a super relationship and a united goal to help new and experienced grandparents make memorable connections with their grandchildren, whether they live across the world or next door to each other.

As teachers and moms we know what works with kids and our enthusiasm and unique heartfelt ideas inspire grandparents to connect with their grandchildren. There is no greater joy for us than updating a book that has already added joy to so many family relationship. What began as a book has become our full-fledged mission to support and cheer on grandparents in their essential role.
