With the chaos of juggling our own schedules with our kids’ calendars, it’s easy for your quality time to be limited to carpool conversations and the bedtime routine. Penciling in some one-on-one time with your favorite girl may require a little extra effort, but it’ll pay off in spades. Here, 15 ways to stop stressing and start making memories.
1. Ice Cream Outing
Because calories don’t count when you’re spending time with your favorite girl!
2. Sign Up For a Mother-Daughter Cooking Class
The weeknight dinnertime rush tends to take the fun out of cooking. Bring it back by devoting a few hours to hands-on foodie fun with your little one. Look up a cooking school in your area — you may be surprised to find how many kid-friendly classes are out there.
3. Spa Day
Instead of trying to squeeze in a mani-pedi while your kids are at school or during your lunch hour, schedule appointments for two after school or on a weekend afternoon. It’s a fun opportunity to indulge yourselves in some girl time.
