Grandparenting in the Digital Age


Babies, Zoomers and Boomers




During this era of social distancing, how do grandparents and children use video chat to keep in touch and build new relationships? How does your new grandbaby respond when you play peek-a-boo over FaceTime? Will an infant recognize you from session to session?

A major study by University of South Dakota,  Lafayette College, and Georgetown University is being undertaken to answer these and other questions. The study will consist of a large-scale survey as well as video chats.  

Dr. Rachel Barr of Georgetown University is hosting a webinar about the study.  She will share background on the science of early childhood development, early childhood media usage, and relationship building over video chat. In addition to tips and strategies about how to engage virtually with grandchildren during the pandemic, Dr. Barr will answer questions about the study and share other opportunities to get involved with this timely research.  Take the 10-minute  survey here  prior to the webinar, or see below for more information.
