Any relationship between parents and children should include one-on-one dates. These moments together don’t have to be complicated or expensive. Just checking out the latest toys at the toy store, going for ice cream, or visiting a story in the library are great options for light-hearted fun.

As they get older, try something more active, like playing mini golf, hiking, cycling, or swimming. You can also take them to a play, a baseball game, or even a concert. Creating fun memories in a positive environment can make a big difference in your relationship and encourage your child to explore new interests and hobbies.
