Spending a quality time with the family is the best thing I always enjoy. Sometimes we have dinner all together, mom and I will always prepare great food for the families. After a graceful prayer we can talk about anything and sometimes we make jokes and have just a little interaction with each other.

That's the only time we could get the chance to talk and spend some time with other members of the family. So we see to it that we are all gathered every dinner time or breakfast.

Dinner, or any meal for that matter is a great way to get the family together for some nice quality family time. These are things that help keep a family close with eachother. It is always great to spend some time hanging out and enjoying the company of your family.

I spend most of my weekend with my family. I sometimes get bored with hanging our at the mall, except I go with my close friends. I stay at home at the weekends to take care of my grandmother. she is 86 years old and we all take care of her.

I think that it is wonderful that you spend your weekends staying with and caring for your grandmother. I am sure you grandmother really appreciates it all that you do for her, and the time she gets to spend with you, and you are able to have some great memories with your grandmother. These are moments and times to cherish forever.

simple things I do for the family is eating together at one table. At that moment, my wife and children can interact with each other discussing everything

I spend my family time by going to a park near river. We talk about our concern or certain family issue. We try to resolve it immediately.

We often go out to the mall to eat and watch a movie. And this coming week, we are planning to go out to the beach to enjoy the sand and water. I always make to a point that we will have quality time together. This is the foundation of having a strong relationship within a family. God bless

We love going to the beach as a family as well. My daughter has a blast, and my husband enjoys surfing. I like just lying around on the sand relaxing in the warm sun. It's a great place we all can enjoy and have a wonderful time. We go to a few movies as well. We have a thatre here which plays dollar movies, we go there a lot when there's a movie one of us wants to see, you just can't go wrong with the price! It is a fun and cheap way to spend family time together. I agree with you that family time spent together is very important. It keeps families close together!

Going out for dinner is a treat for us. I enjoy it when we all go together. I have a 14 yr old and a 5 yr old, so their individual time is different. Both girls, so shopping with the 14 yr old always works. As for the 5 yr old, she's still simple and loves to play board games.

Those are some great things you do with your daughters to spend time together as a family. We love to go out to dinner every once in a while as well, that is always a nice way to spend time together, and a special treat for all of us. Shopping is fun too, unfortunately my daughter is only three, and although she likes to go in certain stores, she isn't much for shopping, she always gets tired and bored! Board games are fun..and i love to play simple ones with my daughter. it's fun and a great way to spend some quality time together.
