Single Parents 10 Ways To Create A Life Long Relationship With Your Kid, It’s Easy!

I know as a single parent, the days seem to be never ending with so much needing to be done. In the mean time your child is growing up, time is slipping away, here are 10 ways to create lasting memories and develop the relationship with your child.

1. Go to the Library. You can get books, movies and music from the library, there is lots of ideas to be found there.

2. ChildHood Memories. Introduce your child to the things you liked when you were growing up.

3. To Do List. Make a list of the things you want your child to do/be/have before he or she grows up.

4. Ask Your Child add to the above list things your child wants to.

5. Check the Newspaper. I found the weekend guide to be a great resource for free or low cost things to do.

6. Ask Other Parents. Ask them what they do. You could invite your child’s friends and family to an outing or over for an evening of fun at home.

7. Family Volunteer Opportunities. There are so many groups and organizations that would love you and your child to come help out. Check out what is available in your area and try a few. Repeat the one or ones that appeals to you both.

8. Volunteer For A School Field Trip or Party. Check your schedule and plan to take some time to be with your child during the school day. The school is always looking for parent volunteers, so ask what is needed and do what fits for you.

9. Go To Church/Temple/SynagogueCheck a few out until you find a fit. There are many resources available at these places of worship.

10. Special Groups.Look for groups gathering or organizations of people who like to do what you like to do. Lots of hobbyists meet to spend time with other people who like the same things. What a great way to meet new people.
