How Is Your Family Spending Together?

What sort of activities do you and your family find yourselves doing lately? Are you planning crafts projects together? Movie nights in? Camping in the backyard? Or video game time?


With the economic downturn, many families have been forced to spend more time at home doing things together. For families that all grown up, they don't get to spend time together out side of church, like watching movies, going to the park and other things they used to do when the kids are still small and playful.

I joined for one reason only to have it be a great opportunity to spend time with my growing children...we make popcorn, we cook together, we garden and do things together. When they grow up and have lives on their own, it would be nice to talk to know that the time is well spent. Just being there.

Families today are becoming more cautious of their spending, so they share some of the ways to spend time with the whole family without spending too much yet with all the fun. Sometimes we just don't realize that it’s still the simplest activities that children remember and enjoy the most.
