Kids Phone: now my mom actually teaches her grandkid over video call
Posted by u/nino_abroad on r/Parenting · July 23, 2026
We moved to Canada two years ago and my biggest guilt is that my daughter (3) barely hears Georgian anymore. My mom back in Tbilisi speaks almost no English, and their weekly video calls had slowly turned into my mom just... watching her.
Someone in a k13.games thread mentioned this little kids' game with an English/Georgian toggle. Now our Sunday call has a ritual: I share my screen, flip it to Georgian, and my mom names the animals - „ძაღლი!“ - while my daughter smacks the right picture and shrieks. My mom does all the sound effects.
Last week my daughter pointed at a real dog and said „ძაღლი“ in my mom's exact intonation. My mom cried. I cried. For any diaspora family: 10/10.
