The 50 day challenge:

Favorite presents

Last Friday was the birthday of our eldest daughter. For a couple of years now, we've been giving our kids experiences instead of gadgets. In this materialistic society, it seems like a wise choice. Of course there will be some physical gifts too, but the ones that are usually most appreciated are what we call "Mother's Day", "Father's Day" and "Family Day". We as parents decide when and what to do on the different days (the kids can have their wishes, of course!). Sometimes the days fall quite close to the birthday, other times we have to wait for our special days. For example, a mom's day might involve luxury coffee at a café, a trip to the cinema or a pedicure/manicure, while a dad's day usually has a sports theme such as skating, watching a live sport etc. The special thing about these days is that you get to be all alone without siblings and do something with a very present parent who isn't busy checking the phone or answering emails.

We had Olivia's family day already today. It's fall break and the whole family went to a water park. A very nice day with happy children and parents! Other family days have taken us on trips to the sea, SF Zoo or Astrid Lindgren's World. Scattered showers, but with the theme of "brooding on the family" as my new found German friend would have put it:-) It simple means that you hang out and have a good time with the family.

Thought of the day:

What kind of birthday present do you appreciate the most?

This article is part of The 50 day challenge, where I challenge myself to write an article a day for 50 days! The articles can be about anything, short or long, but I can't miss a single day!
