If you’re stuck in a rut, if the kids have been moody (or the parents have been moody), or you simply want to add more joy to your family’s day, here are six simple gestures that are sure to put a smile on your family’s faces.
Amp Up a Meal
Another bowl of cereal, another sandwich, another chicken dinner—if your meals have become predictable or monotonous, tweak them just a little to the delight of your family. Add colorful fruit slices as a topping for cereal, have lunch outside for an instant picnic, or serve dinner in the dining room on your fancy china.By changing the presentation, the setting, or by adding a new ingredient to your regular standbys, you can easily make mealtime a surprising delight.
