If your child has a computer, consider getting "on-line" and communicating through e-mail, instant messenger or private chat rooms. Most computers have microphones built in therefore allowing you to utilize the voice chat option offered by many messenger services. This can be a lot less costly than phone bills and it provides a way for sending letters instantly. You can also play games with your child (go fish, checkers, etc.) utilizing game websites like Yahoo.com. An inexpensive web-cam can allow you to talk "face to face" and enjoy your chats in "real time".
