Taking time to
bond with your daughter is a good way to keep you both connected
while strengthening your relationship. Life can get extremely busy
sometimes, but setting aside time for just you and her will mean the
world to her and allow you both to create treasured memories
together. Whatever you decide to do during mother and daughter time
will allow you both to focus on only each other and not everyday
stressors, allowing you both the chance to relax and have fun.
Home Spa
Treatments
Spa days are fun
and relaxing for everyone involved. If you don't have the funds to
splurge on pampering for an actual spa day, you can have your own spa
day at home. You can turn an area of your home into a spa with the
right equipment, such as a pedicure chair from livingearthcrafts.com.
You can take turns giving each other manicures and pedicures and
create your own do-it-yourself facial masks made from natural
ingredients. Don't forget nourishing snacks and healthy,
fruit-infused water.
Arts and
Crafts
Doing arts and
crafts together is a great way for you both to express your creative
side. You can also take art-related classes together to enhance your
skills. The list of art projects you can do is pretty much endless,
so it'll be fun finding something you both can enjoy. Some ideas
include:
·
Scrapbooking
· Writing
a story
· Jewelry
making
·
Painting
· Sewing
projects
·
Homemade playdough or slime
You can also
journal together by jotting down your favorite memories or things
that happened during the day. Another great way to be creative is
photography. You can both take a walk together and take pictures of
what you see along your journeys.
Volunteer
Together
Volunteering
is not only just a great way to enjoy time together, but it's also a
way to teach your daughter the importance of giving back to the
community. There are many places you can volunteer at including soup
kitchens, animal shelters, nursing homes, cleaning up local parks,
and read stories to children in the hospital. If you're unsure of
where you can volunteer locally, you can contact your local volunteer
center to find out more information.
Exercise
Together
Exercising
together is a great way to get up and get moving while getting
healthier. Even if your daughter is very young, you can still
exercise with her by creating obstacle courses, dancing, playing
follow the leader, and jumping rope. With an older child, you can do
yoga together, go for a jog, take the dog for a walk, play sports,
and ride bikes. Having your daughter as an exercise partner is a good
way to stay motivated together while developing healthy bones and
muscles.
Take a Trip
Out of Town
Children at any
age can benefit from a change in scenery. Find something fun to do
together in a different town to change things up a bit. Even
something like visiting a new park or dining at a different
restaurant in a different town can offer a bonding experience while
allowing you to both appreciate new surroundings. Research things to
do in nearby towns and allow your daughter to pick where you'll go on
your outing.
Your daughter is
a very important person in your life, she's
your best friend. Take the time to bond with her and
make her feel special and cherished in every way that you can. Make
your special time together an adventure and mix it up each time to
provide new things you can do while enjoying each other's company.
