[QUOTE="Murrmurr, post: 1608115, member: 10112"] When my grandkids were 4 and 2 years old and lived out of state, I sent a letter and a drawing to each of them every week. My son (their dad) said they loved getting them. looked forward to them, and sometimes asked that weeks letter be read at bedtime. Smart phones and face-time didn't exist, of course, but I'd still do it anyway because it was personal and something they could physically touch and hold onto. I sent drawings because I happen to draw well (at the time). Whimsical drawings, i.e. my grandson as an elf fighting dragonflies and such. But you could send pictures of favorite things or whatever. Any special little thing they might treasure till the next week. [/QUOTE]
