Eat Dinner Together• We all know it… “The family that eats together stays together”. Let us

make an effort, at least 2/3 times to eat together. TV off. Phones on mute. Just the family hanging out together.

Bedtime Walks• While this can be a challenge with late night conference calls, homework

pressures etc, try to schedule a family night walk (say on Fri. nights or weekend nights). It is a great time at the end of the day, when everyone is relaxed, nowhere to run to and just spend time together in the relative quietness of the night.

Write Love Notes• Of course we love our kids. But do we tell them often enough? Slide a

cute note into your daughter’s lunch box, snack box, pencil box-… anything with a smiley and tell them you love them.

5 minute snuggle• I have decided that I will snuggle up with her on her bed, 5 minutes

before she needs to be woken up for school. It is a nice way to start the day!

Play Music• When all of you are running around in the morning, play some songs

in the background – Tomorrow when your kids hear these songs, it will bring back a flood of memories of the time spent at home.

Fun Rituals• Create small fun rituals• Eg : Junk Sunday, Sunny Saturday, Fun Friday, etc

Easy Fun Dinners• Have candle light dinner with your kids. Kids will like it. Same food but

different ambience and different feel.

Conclusion• Our lives are all about making memories.• So if you feel that your family is running crazy with tight schedules,

pause for a moment and create rituals of bonding which would enrich your lives.
