The latest research tells us that as a parent, your time is the greatest
thing you can give your child to make her truly happy and well-adjusted—clothes,
more toys, the best backpack or tennis shoes will never do it. Studies show
that children are most likely to thrive when they grow up in families that
spend time together. So, how do you make interesting and fun family time a
reality—even if you and your spouse work or you are in a single parent household?
With lots of proven-to-work ideas!
This Parent Guide provides detailed, innovative family activities that build
learning, foster physical fitness, boost togetherness and more. This is
one resource that you’ll want to keep on hand when planning your next family
adventure. Ideas are split into three different categories: indoor, outdoor
and planned activities. Do an activity a week for a year or do one whenever
the mood strikes. These special family times will end being some of your
best memories and your child will be learning and not even know it.
