The greatest legacy we can give our children is not money or property, but beautiful mem-ories
of childhood.
As parents we try to ensure our children’s future happiness by building assets like property, business, bank-balance for their inheritance. But besides these, we need to give kids a legacy of great memories which become a lifelong source of happiness and strength.
Here are some ways to make beautiful memories.
Spend time with your children: However busy you may be, make spending time together
as a family one of your top priorities.
Make every moment count: Long or short, your time with your kids must be quality time where they are the exclusive focus of your attention. So, watching TV together doesn’t count.
Make bedtime special: Sharing the day’s happenings, warm hugs, lots of cuddling, stories, all these will be treasured by your children when they grow up.
Play games with them: Ludo, carom, card games, football, volley-ball, cricket, teach them how to play and how to deal with winning and losing. You’ll be surprised at the fun you have.
Have spontaneous fun: Splash in a puddle, dance in the rain with them, build sand castles, go on unplanned outings. Let your children have great memories of their childhood.
