All Together Now
What do families need to have fun and make memories? Each other! And this adorable book . . .
Discover 50 fun activities you can do at home or in the backyard or in your local area. Each one encourages families to be in the present, enjoy quality time together, practice new skills and create treasured family memories.
These sweetly illustrated activities are accessible and can be done with minimal resources. You'll enjoy hilariously silly 5-minute or 30-minute boredom-busting, bonding-boosting ideas, as well as family projects that can last the whole afternoon or be revisited over a year. Many will result in beautiful keepsakes, like a family recipe book, while others will simply leave you with warm memories and plenty of giggles!
Activities are zero-to-low cost, nature-friendly and include:
- Form a family band and hold a disco in the kitchen!
- Make a family gratitude jar
- Create a family recipe book filled with all your favourites
- Role reversal - the kids are in charge!
- Take a family portrait
- Make a time capsule
- Do the chores . . . in character!
- Start your own 'Family Day' - pick out a day in the year and spend the day celebrating your family with special dishes, music and crafts
- Put on a show-and-tell afternoon where each member gives a presentation about something they love
- Choose and practice family-care rituals, including affirmations and cosy comforts
Time flies when you're having fun! It's important to enjoy the moment, and this book will help your family do just that.
