Play hide and seek

 

Few days before the Father’s Day a survey was conducted among young boys.  They were asked about the good character they like in their fathers.  One boy told his father will play hide and seek with him, the next one told his father used to take him for shopping.  In most of their answers the main thing they liked was their companionship with their father.  So let us all not forget to spend time with our children.

The survey conducted among young boys, where they expressed their appreciation for the companionship of their fathers, is a touching reminder of the importance of spending quality time with our children. Father's Day is indeed a great occasion to reflect on the bonds we share with our kids and the positive influence we can have on their lives.

Children often value the time spent with their parents’ more than material possessions or extravagant gestures. Simple activities like playing hide and seek, going shopping, reading a book together, or just having a heart-to-heart conversation can create lasting memories and strengthen the parent-child relationship.

In our busy lives, it's essential to make a conscious effort to prioritize family time and build connections with our children. These moments of companionship contribute to their emotional and psychological well-being, instill values, and create a sense of security and love that they carry with them throughout their lives.

So, on Father's Day and throughout the year, let's not forget to spend quality time with our children, listen to their thoughts and concerns, engage in activities they enjoy, and provide the love and support they need to thrive and grow into confident, well-rounded individuals.

Train up a child in the way He should go: and when He is old, He will not depart from it. We must spend enough time with our children to bring them in divine love.  We must pray with them and teach them charity, humility, wisdom etc.
