Time for Kids:
Creating time for kids…your kids, is a very important factor when it comes to raising them into healthy and balanced members of society.
It’s funny how people seem to think that they have created time for their kids after work by bringing them out to the mall for a lifeless and meaningless stroll only to come home with nothing more than a whole bunch of stuff that they (or the kids) don’t need.
The truth is time has been wasted because a time scheduled for kids doesn’t require that expensive trips to shopping malls (etc) be made. Your kids simply want to be with you. ‘That’ is A QUALITY TIME FOR KIDS!
It could involve (time for kids that is…) simply staying home just lolling around on the carpet watching Sesame Street or giving each other nonchalant kisses and exchanging hugs. Spending quality time for kids involves nothing more than just CONNECTING with the kids, not spending detached moments of dis-connectivity loitering through unfamiliar places. It’s about spending time connecting with the kids when you KNOW you’ve GOT SOMETHING ELSE BETTER TO DO.
You see, making quality time for the kids is all about getting to know your kids. Making an effort to be there for them when you know you CAN be doing something else with your life. We know we can use that time to actually finish off the report or call that important client up – but the most important thing with quality time with kids is that we DON’T.
Time for Kids: Fun things to do
It really isn’t that hard to create a period of a day or week to set a time for your kids. Neither is it hard to make fun things to do while re-connecting with them.
With all the energy they possess, you can’t go wrong with the following suggestions.
- Visits to the park
- Playing board and helpful video games
- Watching their favorite TV shows.
- Picnics
- Reading and Drawing.
- Making Meals together
Remember, setting time for your kids will assist you immensely in accomplishing a very important feat in creating balanced and productive adults. One biblical verse comes to mind in this regard: "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
[Proverbs 22:6]
That said: Let’s begin to set quality time for our kids starting today.
