Kids and Skype

I had a skype date with my brother, niece and nephew tonight. Very cool that my 4 mth old nephew grins insanely at me when he sees me on skype. Such a happy little munchkin that I don't think I can claim it is me specifically.

But the thing I have been thinking about is how you amuse smalls over skype. I have done waving games, and played peekaboo, and done the 'if you are happy and you know it clap your hands' game. And my poor cat has to make a guest appearance each time. Clawed really doesn't get skype. 

It occurs to me that this might be a very good use for my finger puppets. Actually, I need to find the toy frog, cause that is where all the under-the-sea ones ended up.

Went swimming today - and when I started back-stroking I got the most wicked headspins. That is not fun in the water.
