I have been leading a remote team for past few years and the best tool for me is a long 2 hour call Wendsday afternoon, we start with status and project updates and after that we just chat about everything else including venting against the company, books, sporting events, the weather and I find this to be the best bonding tool for the team... good luck!

I like this approach. Having 1-2 hour long call every day is bit much but having 1 call with whole team once a week and rest of the days just updating each other on Slack seems more efficient.
