Growing up Cory's family had little chairs that they used for Family Night and scriptures and such...so for the last family reunion, Grandma & Grandpa made one for each grandchild. We FINALLY got ours painted. They are so fun!
Our one rule for family night is that you have to sit on your chair the whole time (unless we are doing some activity or singing the snowman song!). We believe that teaching reverence starts at home...so if we want the kids to be reverent during church and other special occasions...we better practice at home! Brig does really well and having these really cute chairs helps!
So we have been trying to be better about doing family home evening every Monday night...something our
church really encourages. And I sure love it- I love having those Monday nights to do something fun and really get to teach something with some substance to Brig...like how to listen and obey like
Nephi, or how to do chores, how to smile at people (something our shy little BMan has to work on here and there) and that we are all children of God. But I really want it to be something that the kids (eventually) enjoy and look forward to.
So...any thoughts? What are some ways that we can make this wonderful time even better? Anyone?
