Cooking
date is a great event to announce to your kids. You can
put a date on the calendar and call it Cooking day. A
nice thing to make is a homemade pizza. (of course you
can make anything you want) The point is that your kids
will be excited to have a planned activity. This can become
a wonderful tradition.
Board
games
In
a time of video games and the internet…a nice time of
playing board games can be more fun. You create a nice
atmosphere by setting out a nice blanket on the floor.
Have some fun munchies and comfort food. You could dig
out some of those old tapes you loved as a teen and hare
some memories of yourself when you were a kid.
Read
to your kids
Many
parents read books at bedtime, but how about a tradition
of reading the Sunday paper together? Take the time to
discuss what is being read. If reading at bedtime, why
not try reading by flashlight under the covers? How about
a little pillow fight? Clip articles and comics out of
the paper you read together. You can start a cute scrapbook
together or even a family diary. A little something special
for you, and your kids to share.
