(Business Wire)–
This September 13, 2009, Grandparents Day will be celebrated across the nation.
And now, with the launch of Grandchild Connection, there is even more cause for
celebration. Grandchild Connection offers a user-friendly and affordable
video-conferencing service that empowers grandparents everywhere to stay in much
closer contact with their grandchildren through the magic of online VideoVisits.

Marion McQuade, American founder of National Grandparents Day
(http://www.grandparents-day.com), and Dr. Keith Bolton, PhD, president and
founder of Grandchild Connection, have a shared vision: allowing grandchildren
to benefit from the wisdom and heritage of their grandparents, and enjoy warm,
nurturing relationships with them.

“Our convenient service harnesses the magic of video conferencing technology to
bring the generations together,” said Dr. Bolton. “We`re all about bridging
miles and bringing smiles to grandparents and grandchildren alike.”

Grandchild Connection`s website will give subscribers access to instructor-led
videos presented by Dr. Bolton. Dr. Bolton`s method is a direct result of four
years of his personal research combined with that of child development expert,
Marcia Hillman, LCSW. With help from Grandchild Connection, grandparents can
enjoy seeing and interacting with their grandchildren during live, face-to-face
VideoVisits that include interactive learning and customized game play with
exclusive SeaTails ebooks and custom activities. VideoVisits can be recorded for
sharing with friends or to simply enjoy at a later date.

From the website, grandparents will be able to enjoy many other features
including ToolKits containing instructional DVDs, illustrated Storybooks, and
ShowOffs creativity tools.
