Building a Closer Family: 5 Resolutions to Help Build Your Bond This New Year

Want your family to be closer this new year? Here are four resolutions that can help with your family bond:

  • Affirm and Praise: This helps build strong and loving communication – for both spouse and kids!
  • Eat Together: Family dinner is a time to connect with each other, a "platform" for sharing our deepest concerns.
  • Quiet Time Together: Kids open up when they are together with you, doing nothing. Make quiet time and/or prayer part of your daily routine.
  • Learn Love Language: Everyone feels loved differently, so commit to learning and "speaking" your loved ones' languages.
  • Have Fun: Schedule in playtime, family game night or interesting things to do together. Take turns picking.

Happy New Year! How do you plan to get closer to your family this year?
