Encuentros online en educación infantil: Una experiencia vincular y educativa en tiempos de COVID-19

The purpose of this article is to report a bonding and educational experience focused on the use of new technologies, specifically video calls, with children in early education. It is a case study focused on the experience of using Skype with children from 2 to 3 years old. These online meetings were held weekly for three months due to the situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which involved confinement measures and school closures. From an autoethnographic study, based on observation and data collection in a diary, the results develop a series of topic proposals that facilitate interaction and bonding among classmates through a screen, in this case due to the exceptional circumstances. It is concluded that through these online meetings it was possible to maintain contact, share experiences and develop skills in a virtual environment of positive interaction.
