Hello Dear Friends,

We all are going through definitely a difficult and challenging phase. Hope you all are safe and doing well. Further with a 7 day lock down, what we can expect is some time to think,re-think, live in the present moment hoping for a better future ahead.

So, Why not try something new during this 7 days? Am damn sure, you all have tired many things new in the few months. Well in starting with cooking new dishes, making many DIY hacks, some even took up to launch their own you tube channel and others tired new make-up hacks and some tutoring children and few more craving for self-love and self-care. Being mother is not just responsibility it is also the cumulative ability to take up new challenges and face new situations every single day and come out as best solution provider.

Every mother dream about that self-care and “me time” and I bet now it is the “we- time” and We-care. So, without much of delay lets get into action.

These 7 things you can try in the coming 7 days along with your children to enjoy the present moment.

  1. Home Chefs- Bake A Cake : Yes, take some time from your busy schedule and indulge in baking. Usually children love cakes. So, make them involved in baking ask them to blend and mix the ingredients. Make sure you do it all under your guidance and supervision. Enjoy your evening tea with cake from your balcony. Not every time we need to visit restaurant to have a family time. Make it a small tea gathering with family members and just see the happiness in everyone’s face.
  2. Clean up Wardrobe : Everyone has a messy wardrobe. So, get help from the little hands and clear up. You will notice they will enjoy this activity.
  3. Exchange Story with Twist: We all are good at story telling. Give story telling a twist by asking your child to narrate a own story. Imagination and creativity is more in children they would come up with a better story than us. So, give it a short!
  4. Draw my world: Its time they learn about you and your family. In the busy world we have been living distant apart from our family and relatives. So, make a opportunity to introduce your child about your childhood and your family by sketching or simply making drawings. You would observe in turn they would pick paper and start drawing their life events making you realize what and how they are living their life. This is an important exercise to know more about your child. Try this for sure!
  5. Balcony Family Picnic Date: Picnic date with family without stepping out from home, Why not? Get dressed up, plan a meal lunch or dinner with minimal menu and ingredients available from your kitchen. Spread a mat or bedspread in balcony and make your family members sit over it, have a game play, ludo or monopoly and then enjoy the meal. You feel happy and it is just what you need at this hour.
  6. Family Reunion over Video Call: What more could one ask! A video call to all family members at the same time. Yes, it possible. Make prior arrangements like set good light, assemble over the right focus area and inform your relatives the time early and just make the call and enjoy the reunion happily.
  7. Schedule a Movie Night: With multiple options in OTT platform we can enjoy movies without going out. Prepare your family’s favorite menu and watch your favorite movie at home and cherish the moment.

With things going around us due to pandemic it might be difficult for us to adapt. But the early we adapt to the new normal the more safe we and our family will be. Meet you all in another interesting blog till then stay home, stay safe.
