10 Ways to Make Time for Your Children
· Commit to a family mealtime each day.
· Write your children's activities into your schedule book - in ink!
· Identify one thing on your weekly schedule you can do without and replace it with kid time.
· Take one of your children along when you run errands.
· Volunteer to participate in a regularly scheduled child activity, such as coaching a softball team or helping with a school activity.
· Identify one children's show on TV that you secretly like to watch and make a point of watching it with your child.
· Develop an interest in a hobby you and your child can enjoy together.
· If your work requires that you travel, take one of your children along with you when your business trip can be extended into a long weekend.
· If your work schedule is flexible, start your work day earlier so you can get home earlier in the afternoon to be with your family.
· Leave your work, cellular phones and pagers at home when you go on family vacations and outings.
