Spending Time Together

Time is one of the most valuable quantities that we have, so we should use it wisely with the ones that we love. You don't need to spend tons of money to show your family that you love them. They will know by the way you treat them and the time that you spend with them.

Here are some inexpensive activities that you could do with your family;
1. Go for a walk
2. Go to a museum
3. Listen to live music or a lecture at a book store
4. Attend the local high school's musical
5. Fly a kite
6. Have a picnic
7. Go to the playground
8. Go to the library and pick a book on an activity that your children are interested in and do it together
9. Crafts
10. Play charades
11. Play a board game
12. Get a movie from the library and watch it together

Building Reservoirs

I believe there is nothing more important than your relationships with your family in this life. The more you value something/some one the more time you will spend with it/them. So if you value your family show them by spending time with them. Build a reservoir of memories for them and you. Give your family a legacy---spend the weekend with them doing something they like to do. Plan family vacations, take trips, go to the park, take walks...just spend time with them.

The most valuable quantity is time so where are you using yours?
