1. Play:

This is fun times for both, you and your children. Children always loves their parents play with them.

Play indoor as well as outdoor games. They need to learn how to win without cheating. They also need to learn how to handle the loss.

Parents playing with them can teach this important lesson to them.

2. Discuss:

Don’t think they don’t understand your problems. This is a myth. Sometimes a great solution comes from children. They have the power of fresh and without baggage thinking.

Discuss your office work, discuss politics, discuss their schooling, discuss their worldviews, and discuss the different books you both are reading.

Dictate your office letter to a child. She will learn the art of writing. Identify such other opportunities.

3. Outing:

A periodic outing is necessary with your children. At homes parents are always preoccupied with one or the other priorities and children are busy with their homework and endless tuitions. It is the Outing where both parents and children are free.

This is an opportunity of creating lasting memories. You both emotionally come closer during outings i.e. short picnics or long holidays.

All these are tacit fun learning.
