Six pleasurable ways to end the day with the children

Surely, even in summer, you are still very busy, perhaps those who are already on vacation are saved, but the routine is almost identical for parents who must continue working. Early rises, hurries, swimming courses for the little ones in the afternoon, commitments, last minute purchases because there is no bread left and the little one needs markers.

And when do we take care of ourselves? When do we pay attention to the kids? The arrival of the last hours of the day is a good opportunity to do so, and with the certainty that the day lengthens a little more and we have more time. It is true that when our children have vacations we spend more sleep because they go to bed later, and also you can not take a nap on the sofa while a child jumps to one on the ribs instead of watching the movie that we put, but deserves the pain Invent special occasions. So From seven in the afternoon you can relax to enjoy every minute with them, and in addition to showering together, having dinner with the family and letting them tell you what the grandfather's mask is like, you can dedicate yourself to:

  1. Go out to the terrace to see the sunset, the rising of the moon and the first stars in the sky. Looking at the sky is a very pleasant and unusual activity because we usually do not stop to observe it, seeing the faces of children admiring the stars is very beautiful.

  2. Try kissing with your nose, and caressing your arms and back with your fingers and toes. Affectionate massages help you sleep.

3.'Tell me why you love me'. It is clear that we love them for what they are and what they represent, whatever they do. But there are times when we like to hear from those who want 'what I like most about you is', it is an activity that brings people together, and it is fun to know how the kids see us. We can sit around the table or on the floor, the closer the better.

  1. Do you fancy a relaxing bath with creamy massage?, nothing better after a long hot day than taking a bath with warm water, will help us sleep better. And after him we can smear cream (without extending) the belly of the children so that later faces or shapes are drawn with the finger. What if you let them also moisturize you?

  2. Take the children to the room half an hour to put them to bed, so you will have time to read a story chosen by each of the children, and also one that you like for them. Y between reading and reading don't forget a good tickle session.

  3. Do you live near the mountain and are not too lazy to go out after dark? Then recharge your flashlight batteries and go for a walk near the house, with a lot (but a lot of luck) you will see some firefly. But surely you can spot a bat in search of mosquitoes, and at least you will feel the cool of the last hours of the day, these experiences are not frequent for children, so they will love it.

If you like any, do not hesitate to put it into practice, every day should end especially for children. And when you take them to bed, tell them how much you love them so they sleep dreaming of your love. What plans do you have today to do with the kids before bedtime?
