Family is above all and before all. Nothing can come before it and beyond. It’s your family who is always still there through your entire thick and thins. It’s your family who will never abandon you no matter what. Your family is your sole support system for ever. But the unfortunate thing here is that we often take our family for granted. Probably because we know that it will be there for us no matter what. Amidst all our daily life hassles, we tend to ignore the quality time that we must keep spending with our family. Here are five fun ways how you can enjoy some real good family fun time together.
Way 1: Play some night games :
You might be busy the whole day, but you are obviously free at night. Now, this night time which you have, you can utilize it so very well in order to bond well with your family. You can play games such as memory games, board games, or other indoor games together. Playing together will provide a sense of togetherness in children and the equation among your family will also get better day by day. Playing games before going to sleep help you have memories of good times before you get in bed. This way you and your children will retain good memories of the family and feel good about being this way.
Way 2: Arrange some competition at home :
After a week or two, arrange some competition sort of contest for the whole family where you can have an art competition, cooking competition, a cricket challenge etc. Arrange a two hour competition at your own place, where each one of you will participate and have fun together. Such competition sort of fun things will help you spend real good quality time with your family where you will get to get along with each other and bond over really well.
Way 3: Go out to dine once in a week :
Although there is a lot that you can do while being at your own place, but still a little change every now and then brings in freshness and energy. Take time out to go and dine out together, have ice-cream and come home walking if possible. A night walk with family can be a wonder thing to do. While you are walking in peace at night, you tend to share the smallest of things with each other, which again helps you bond together.
Way 4: Invite your children’s friends over for night stays :
Allow your children to invite their friends over, to stay. Prepare good food for them and have them play. Play along with them and talk to them. Play games together and entertain your children’s friend so that they feel proud of having such cool parents. Also give them some time alone to do whatever they want. This way you and your wife/husband can also get to have some quality time alone.
Way 5: Watch a movie at home :
Bring a CD of a movie that mutually interests you and your family. Sit together and start watching over with a tub of popcorn. Have a personalized interval in the mid of the movie, go and get some munchies and then come back after having shared each other’s thoughts of how the movie has been so far. Watch the complete movie and have little snacks and munchies as dinner while watching the movie. Spending such time together will help you bond well and have fun with each other.
These are the 5 ways, how you can enjoy some quality time with your family without making too much of efforts to get extra time out or so.
