Tin Can calling

It’s a telephone for kids: the Tin Can, a wi-fi-enabled landline (whatever that means) with all appropriate protections.

We have been talking daily with granddaughters, the two of us on one or another iPhone, the two of them on a Tin Can. The device helps foster the skills of person-to-person conversation: listening, responding, asking questions, taking turns, all the stuff that vexes so many young adults both on and off their phones.

And how is your day going?
