If lately all the evenings in the family circle have become similar to one another, it is time to change the situation. The TV can bring the whole family together at one table. But even without him, you have something to occupy yourself, what to tell each other and what to share. After all, you are a family.
Instructions
Step 1
Come up with a theme for your family dinner ahead of time. This could be a pirate night, for example. Prepare a seafood dinner, hide the treasure in the apartment in advance and draw a map by which you can find it. After dinner, invite the children to play treasure hunters. And after the treasures are found, you can start watching your favorite "Pirates of the Caribbean". If you have a more romantic mood, instead of looking for the treasure, you can arrange a trip to the land of the elves. Make dinner light, with vegetables and fruits. Prepare a theatrical performance with the children, and then sing along to karaoke your favorite songs.
Step 2
Organize your dinner with several delicious yet easy-to-prepare meals. Be sure to involve the whole family in your kitchen chores. The husband can peel potatoes or cut meat. School children can help you chop vegetables for your salad and decorate it. And the smallest can be entrusted with setting the table. They are quite capable of bringing a few plates from the kitchen to the living room and laying out the napkins. Take your time, enjoy every moment everyone spends together cooking. A common cause, even if it is simple, unpretentious, unites the whole family and makes the participants feel one whole.
Step 3
Take a walk after dinner. Break the tradition of watching TV every night after a hearty meal. You can go for a walk in the nearest park. How wonderful it can be to walk slowly through the squeaky snow and discuss where you will go on vacation in the summer. Let even the little ones speak up. Hear what they dream and hope for. Remember the story of your first meeting with your husband and tell it to the children. Such walks do not cost anything in monetary terms, but how much warmth and intimacy you give each other.
