Limit extra activities
Of course, learning a foreign language and playing a team sport are important, but kids don't need to do everything at once. Let each of your children choose one or two activities at a time, and save the rest for later.
Delegate chores
Make cleanup a family affair. Kids can unload the dishwasher, run the vacuum, scrub the bathtub or fold laundry. Let go of your control issues and know that, while they might not do these chores as well as you do, their efforts will open up more free time for everyone.
Have a garage sale
Cut the clutter by letting the kids sort through their things and sell what they no longer use or need. Put the earnings toward something fun you can do together, such as a trip to the movies or an amusement park.
TGIF
What better way to unwind on the workweek's final day than with a good old-fashioned game of Twister, Monopoly or Old Maid. Have a pizza delivered and enjoy the company of the people you love.
When thinking about quality time, consider the fact that quantity may be just as important in reinforcing the bonds and establishing the foundation of a functional, but fun, family.
