Hoping all of you enjoyed my 'Time to Disconnect' post and the two challenges presented to you thus far. Since today will conclude our weekly challenges, I will leave you with two things to do.
Firstly:
Dinner time is a great time to chat and catch up. I tell parents to play 'Hills and Valleys' at dinner, where you go around the table and say what your hills (positives) and valleys (negatives) were for the day. Parents, if your child should have a valley, help them see how to turn that negative into a positive. This is a great way to teach your children how to seek out the positives, how to express, share, and a great way to stay in tuned to what is happening in your child's life!
Secondly:
For parents, a great way to keep it "old school" and teach your children to play without electronics, is pick one day of each weekend and teach your children a childhood game (inside or out) that you used to play! This is a sure way to keep your children healthy, creative, social, and active. It will also be a lot of fun for you as parents and as a couple ..... you'll enjoy this too.
My Thought:
I think the biggest challenge for most people is staying consistent. Please try your hardest to keep up with what you are doing, as consistency is good for your relationship, parenting, and for children!
