Do you spend "quality time" with your children? Spending quality time with our children is extremely important for their development and happiness. Quality time with kids on regular basis is very essential even if you are busy at work. However, due to changing lifestyle, most of the parents are not able to spend quality time with kids. You look at your schedules for the coming week - filled up with running errands, attending parties, household activities, office work, guests visiting/you visiting friends and family etc. If you are a good influence on your children, then you probably already know how to spend time with your children. How many hours of quality time do you spend a day with your children's - playing, snuggling, chatting, or doing other activities. This does not include the time you doing work for them, taking them out when you run errands etc.
