Having a common hobby in the family is very useful. This is not only a great option for a family vacation, but also a great way to establish family relationships, make the family stronger, and get to know each other better.
Instructions
Step 1
A hobby that both parents and children are engaged in is quite a rarity. Sociologists even note that many people do not have any hobbies at all, because you cannot accept watching TV or thoughtless research of sites on the Internet for it. What can we say about a joint lesson for parents and children! And yet, when a family has a common occupation, when it equally captivates both parents and children, this not only has a great effect on relations within this small group, but it defuses the atmosphere in the family and promotes greater mutual understanding. Such a family can be confidently considered successful and fulfilled.
Step 2
Finding a common pastime for everyone in the family seems difficult only at first glance. You just need to be sensitive to each other, take a good look at the interests of the other person and choose an activity that will captivate everyone. In this situation, it is very important not to force anyone and not to force anyone to anything, because a joint hobby should be completely voluntary and bring joy.
Step 3
It is not wrong to say that a common hobby for a family should come from the parents. Firstly, because it is better to take care of them while the children are still young: when they grow up to adolescence, it will be more difficult to captivate them with joint entertainment. And secondly, children are very receptive, they will be happy to do almost anything with their parents, seeing that mom and dad are giving them time.
Step 4
But the opposite is also possible: parents, who are looking closely at what is interesting to their children, themselves are drawn into the process and begin to tinker with them, glue or sew. In general, it does not matter at all who initiated the common hobby, the main thing is that all family members like it and everyone really captivates.
Step 5
It is necessary to choose a common cause gradually. You may already know exactly what you enjoy doing. Try to engage the whole family with your occupation: if this is reading, get together in the evenings and read aloud. It is better to start with small but fascinating stories, then other family members will quickly understand how interesting it is to read together like this. Share your impressions after reading, pass on the role of the reader to others, even the smallest family members, let everyone feel in the center of attention.
Step 6
Almost any joint activity can be organized in the same way. In order to captivate your family with it, you need to show a little imagination, patience and perseverance. Collecting a mosaic can turn for everyone not just putting jigsaw puzzles, but creating magnificent paintings with which you will later decorate the walls of an apartment. And the assembly of model airplanes can spill over into large-scale outdoor battles.
Step 7
You can arrange quizzes, competitions with prizes, get-togethers with other families for your favorite business. The main thing here is to treat the hobby with love and sincerely wish the whole family to be fond of these matters. Even if at first it is not possible to find a common cause for everyone, you need to continue looking for something that will unite and captivate the whole family.
