I added a bunch of new stuff to the long distance parenting store… it was due for an update!

I added :

• a bunch of skype phones… my son uses skype to do internet visitation and he has a skype phone attached to his computer so that he can use skype to call family and friends.
• a bunch of letter writing stuff. Sometimes I can use the prompts in the lunchbox-type books for little notes for the kids. Kids love to use the fun stationary to write letters.
• new virtual visitation equipment recommendations - computers, webcams and headsets are super easy to set up for your kids if you want to do internet visitation.. I added a section for internet visitation how-to as well!
• some non-computer solutions for keeping in touch with your kids such as video phones, skype phones that don’t require a computer, calling cards and cell phones for kids
• A plethora of new books associated with long distance parenting - there are new books coming out all the time. Some of them aren’t directly related to long distance parents specifically but can be helpful… like books for long distance grandparents, which seem to be far more plentiful!
