5 Games You Can Play with Your Kids in 5 Minutes or Under
Let's face it. Some of us feel like we don't have time to play.
But not our kids. No. It's like they are made for it.
Well, actually, they are. Play is one of the ways they learn. And they LOVE IT. If KidLand were a country, play would be their currency. And their language. And their national flag.
So why is play so hard for US?
Well, one of the reasons is that we legitimately have a lot to do. We get sucked up into our lists of important tasks that need to get ticked off. First things first: Look at that list and ask yourself "Does this thing actually need to get done?" And if it does need to get done, does it need to get done now?"
Would it be okay if it waited five minutes? And yeah, I really mean 5 minutes.
WHY?
Because here are FIVE GAMES YOU CAN PLAY WITH YOUR KIDS, EACH IN FIVE MINUTES OR UNDER:
* While most of these games are meant for kids 10 and under, they can be modified for older kids too. See my suggestions at the end.
HOW...
Hi! I'm Abigail.
Want to know the question I have been obsessed with for the last ten years?
If parenting is so amazing (which it IS), then why is it that the experience of parenting so often sucks? I have spent the last ten years finding answers to this question, and building systems that successfully transform the every day job of parenting into the intellectually stimulating, emotionally thrilling ride that something inside us knows it was meant to be.
Because hey, we are not just quesadilla makers; we are also soul shapers. This job we do is profound. It's time we acknowledged that, and if you need help along the road, I am here my friend. I promise, the light you dreamed of in your heart - it's real. And it's ok to ask for help to know how to turn it on. ❤️
