Quality Time For Family
There are some families that are unable to cope up with each other’s needs and demands therefore breaking any significant bond between them. There are also other families that are commended for their bond that transcends through time and any complexity. Families are the basic unit of society, what the individual emits outside clearly speaks of the family inside the house. There are many people that try hard to keep the family values alive but there are other people that simply fail because of various reasons. Perhaps you can point the lack of quality time as one of the main culprit why family relations are weakening every day.
If you are in a dilemma like this, you should find ways to strengthen your family because at the end of the day, they are all you have. The good news is that there are many activities that can encourage interaction and bond.
It is just a matter of finding the right combination that will work best.
You can start by implementing Sunday or any day family day. There are many things to do on a family day; you can for instance go to church, dine, shop and watch movies together. If you think that the family deserves outdoor experience, you can suggest camping, mountain climbing, trekking, biking, diving and other extreme sports. You can also schedule traveling abroad or just wander within the country during your vacations and holidays.
You see, there are many things worth your family’s time, effort and the resources. If your family wants a simple but effective bonding moment, you can just suggest playing games. There are card games, board games, other indoor games and outdoor games that are fun and memorable. In this case, why don’t you try playing the famous bean bag toss otherwise known as cornhole game? You only need three things to successfully play with it namely:
1. Two teams with two members each. The good thing is that adults can play too!
2. You also need bean bags. There are many bean bags with different colors and prints available on stores. If you want to make your own, you are free to do so. You just need your woven fabric and filling materials such as fiberfill and plastic pellets that are especially sold for bean bags.
3. You should provide two target platforms with a hole in the center. You can purchase boards in different colors and prints as well. If you want to make your own, gather materials such as plyboards and nails.
The rules of the game are easy. The first team to reach 21 points wins! Scoring is not difficult because there are corresponding points depending on the position of the bean bag. One point is gained if bean bags are on the target platform. Three points will be yours if bean bags are on the target hole.
As simple as it may seem, these games will surely bring out the best in you and the family as well. Remember that nothing beats quality time together. Happiness and bond will surely come if you and your family persist.
