6. Live far away? Set up a Zoom or FaceTime call. Call them and share pictures and past conversations enjoying family memories.

7. Cook a meal together. Have the kids help, plan, and prep a meal for grandma and grandpa. Deliver it to their house or invite the whole family over to enjoy the meal together!
