To help us take advantage of weekends as a family we have been working to take a family outing on Saturday together. One of our favorite destinations is the local parks. The kids love to explore the many parks in our area, including revisiting some of their favorites often. Emily and Lily are getting to be quite brave at trying all the slides and climbing tricks.
To also help build family ties, we have created a new family tradition - "The Sunday Family Fun Bag." Each Sunday I plan 3 to 4 activities in addition to FHE for us to do together. They are simple, but help keep the kids happy as they anxiously await church at 1 pm. Some of the things we have done is look at memory books, read stories, do puzzles, play games, make cookies, and create crafts. It has been a blessing to watch my kids relationships grow stronger and ours with them as well.
