Engaging in activities with children where both parties are not facing each other, such as during commutes or walks, fosters open communication and connection. This setup alleviates the pressure often associated with direct conversations, allowing topics to arise spontaneously, which enhances bonding experiences. The car rides and similar scenarios create a conducive environment for discussing various subjects, making these moments valuable for parental engagement.
Spending time in the car with your kids is rich with opportunities to create connection, even if it means just listening to their music. Ryan and Sam talk about how they are finding ways to bond with the kids during the commute to school, allowing silence during shared activities, and generational differences when it comes to asking about kids interests.
