May is ?National Family Month.? The celebration of this month is to encourage positive family relationships and focus on developing healthy, confident kids. One of the key components to building a stronger family bond is spending time together. It is a proven fact that families who eat meals together regularly are generally happier and less argumentative; your children want your presence and attention more than anything else. Take time each day to relax and enjoy your kids. Tell them they are loved, appreciated and valued.
- Playing board games
- Playing card games
- Watching a silly movie together and laughing out loud
- Going for walks together and letting the kids collect rocks
- Inviting another child over to play or eat, knowing that he/she isn?t getting family needs met at home
- Eating dinner together every evening
- Reading a book with your kids and having them read it back
- Going for pie and ice cream at a local mom-and-pop restaurant
- Going for fries at your favorite local family restaurant
- Eating a picnic lunch in your back yard, on the picnic table
- Driving into town to visit the family park (bringing balls along for the kids as well as some snacks)
- Staying at a local hotel for one night?eating junk food, swimming, watching TV, etc
- Making crafts together or writing a note to someone you love
- Stopping by the Dollar Store and giving the kids $5 each to spend
- Cleaning the house together (teaches responsibility and teamwork)
But whatever you do . . . do it together and remember, while May is recognized as National Family Month, you should celebrate being a family not only each and every month, but each and every day.
