Kate believes that meaningful conversations are essential to a child's well-being. Yet, in this busy world, it's sometimes a challenge for parents and grandparents to find the time or the way to connect with their kids.
That's why Kate co-founded a company called Little Bridges, which creates award-winning kits filled with fun, family-friendly activities that are designed to encourage laughter and conversation.
Her premise for Little Bridges is simple:
"We provide the tools...you provide the love!"
​
Grandma & me: In the Kitchen and Grandma & me: Explore Outdoors (perfect for ages 4-8+) inspire hours of cooking and nature-based, purposeful play with Grandma and the whole family!
​
Family Time Fun! (ages 4-99+) is a unique collection of more than 45 boredom-busting game and activity ideas that encourage connections, teamwork, and remarkable conversations through fun and memorable play. The kit includes 25 conversation cards, 10 timed challenges, 10 team activities, a family puzzle and more!
​
"We want kids to be technologically literate, but we also need them to understand the value of personal connections," says Kate. "Little Bridges products prompt the kinds of conversations that help kids thrive. And the opportunity to pass along a little family history gives kids a sense of self and adults a sense of purpose." -Kate Jerome
