Topic - Making Memories. Birthdays, anniversaries and the holidays all pose a challenge for gift giving. Let’s start different traditions by being creative in celebrating special times.
Consider buying or making a small gift as a physical token of the event, but focus on making memories. The sweater is outgrown, and the toy breaks, but memories last a lifetime.
Is your child an artist or musician? An outing to an art gallery or concert, just the two of you, will make their birthday special.
Take your child out to a special restaurant for dinner or just dessert. Explore your town to find the fun. Watch planes land, go horseback riding or hiking.
Take Karen and her friend to lunch and the movies. The goal here is to spend time, not money, creating a memory.
We’re so busy in our daily lives that stopping, just for a moment, to do something with your kid will send a powerful message about their importance in your life.
Get to know your children. Don’t just go shopping, do something together!
