The podcast link is brilliant - you just get things you couldn't get in a book like laughing or the background in a recording! I am so happy we have this for all the grandkids.

SUPER idea. In a world where we're all so disconnected, capturing all the things we mean to each other is just priceless. Make the time, do it!

How it works

Getting everyone in is easy!

The page everyone sees when they open the link, with a name typed in
1. Send the link to the group chat. They open it on their own phone and say who they are.
The recording screen, with a question and a big record button
2. They tap and talk. Or write it instead, or ask for a different question.
The video screen, with someone on camera answering the question
3. Or they film a video. They look at the camera and say it straight to Mom.

When everyone's in, you choose the podcast, the book online or the printed book.

The questions

One good question can unlock a great story!

Three of these go in the book to start. Swap in any you like, or write your own.

  1. What's your favorite memory with Mom?
  2. What does Mom do that makes it feel like Christmas?
  3. Tell us about a time Mom made you laugh.
  4. What's something Mom always says?
  5. What has Mom taught you that you still do?
  6. Which Christmas with Mom would you love to have again?
  7. What would you like to thank Mom for this year?
  8. What do you want to say to Mom this Christmas?

Questions people ask

Can her grandkids take part?

Yes! Little ones talk while a parent holds the phone, and older kids record on their own.

Can family who live far away record a message?

Yes! They open the link on their phone wherever they live and record. Every voice plays in the one podcast on Christmas morning.

When do I need to order for Christmas?

Order by Friday, December 4 to have the printed book for Christmas morning. The podcast and the book online are ready the day you order.

Will Mom find out before Christmas?

Only if you tell her! She doesn't need to do anything, so it can stay a surprise until Christmas morning.

Does anyone need to download an app?

No. Everyone opens the link, taps record and talks, on any phone or laptop.

Can someone write their message instead?

Yes. Anyone can type their message instead of recording it, and add a photo with it.

Can everyone chip in?

Yes, if you turn chip-in on. What everyone puts in comes off what you pay.

Gathering is free. Everyone will love being part of it.
