• Ice Cream Fun – Make your own or go out for ice cream and enjoy discussing events and people in your kid’s lives. Ask about their day. What was fun or what was hard about their day. • Girl’s Manicure or Pedicure Fun – Most girls enjoy pampering so mom and daughters get out some nail polish and have some fun or head to a salon and get pampered. • Boys and Balls. Get out repparttar

football, baseball or basketball and use this time to engage your son and enter into his world through repparttar 142178

love of sports (or whatever hobby he or she may have). • Mission Trips – My 10-year-old daughter and I participated in a mission trip to Mexico this year. It was a great bonding experience and a great way to more fully appreciate repparttar 142179

many blessings in our lives. (You can learn about available mission trips by searching repparttar 142180

Internet.) • Family Camp – Probably repparttar 142181

most powerful bonding experience I have had with my kids is family camp. This is our fourth year to go to family camp and it is repparttar 142182

most anticipated and enjoyed event of repparttar 142183

year for my kids. The camp we go to well balanced with focused time with God and Bible lessons, family time, couple or individual time and group fellowship time. There is no shortage of fun, adventure and relaxation. I can think of no better experience for families than to spend a week growing spiritually and bonding as a family.
