Enjoying your free time with your children in a fun and enjoyable way is on most mothers' priority list, and is a great choice for vacations and holidays.
All you want is to enjoy the company of the little ones, but how do you enjoy spending time with your young children without leaving home? And how to prevent this from becoming boring? Check out 6 ways to spend time with family with activities that may be surprising.
1 ? Organize a home camp
One of the most fun activities for kids is camping. Although this time the preference is for activities performed at home, so the solution is to build tents in the living room or bedroom using blankets and sheets. To brighten up the game, light some candles (away from the blankets!) And tell stories to the little ones.
2 ? Tell stories
Even if the camp project didn't work out, storytelling can be a very fun option. It may be your children's favorite story, which you may have read and reread thousands of times. But improvisation can work too. Select old family photos and tell the stories of when you were a child or the adventures of your parents and grandparents. Also opt for old magazines and use the photos from the stories to create, together with your children, stories of mystery and adventure.
3? Dance
Another suggestion, which will surely result in a lot of laughs, is to put a very lively song to play and dance until you get tired in the company of the little ones. Get the whole family involved, invent choreography, teach children how to dance or even promote dance contests. In addition to wasting energy, dance can be a holy remedy for the soul and a link that can further strengthen family ties.
4? Cook with the kids
Cooking with the kids can be a lot of fun and funny. However, this activity only works with children over the age of five. The interesting thing here is to cook attractive dishes for the little ones, like cakes and cookies, and let them participate in the whole process. Instead of getting your hands dirty, explain step by step everything that needs to be done and allow the children to practice the recipe, always helping them and making sure that glassware and sharp objects are distant.
5? Costume chest
Another great fun suggestion that works especially with children between the ages of four and ten is to create a costume chest. Separate clothes of all types, hats, ties, glasses, earrings, necklaces, shoes and other accessories.
Put all the pieces in a box or basket and let the little ones unleash their imagination. Promote fashion shows and encourage children to create characters. If possible, film everything. Watching the videos a few years later can also yield a lot of laughs.
6? Old games
And why not rescue the games you played as a child and teach them to your children? Playing mime, undead, ring-pass, mummy-cat, soap bubbles, statue, skipping ropes, chair dancing, running-pole, stick-catcher, hot potato, bouncing, master sent and hunting Treasure can be very fun activities!
