1.
Your Goal: two concepts (I’m the only one that can pass along my
genealogy).
a.
Grandchildren are nevertoo young.. They are never too young to
pass it on.
Things
that matter most, we build on these ideas. They are never too early.

this dear. Catch their interests. Stories, Sharing. Not an instant
payoff. Get them interested in family history...not genealogy.
