I hate to admit how far behind I am, but this post is going to show that off…. Tina is our July member of the month in The Activity Room, and I have yet to share about her with you.

Tina has been an active member from Quebec since the beginning of The Activity Room (over a year ago!). Today she shares her not-so-secret tip for keeping up with doing activities with her two kids.

This not-so-secret tip to doing more activities with your kids is surprisingly easy.

What’s your best tip for doing activities with your kids?

“Use The Activity Room!! And set a rule (goal) to post something each week.”

All the photos in this article are ones Tina has shared throughout the year in our private members-only Facebook group. It is rare to not see something from her each week. She does awesome keeping with her goal!

Commit a goal to someone now.

Based on Tina’s tip for doing activities with your kids: Make a rule to share something every week.

This rings true for me as well. When I started doing activities with my kids, I made a rule (goal) to share 4 activities every week on Hands On As We Grow. And it helped a ton to have that accountability out there — even if it wasn’t direct. But having put it somewhere in writing made me commit to it.

I encourage you to do that today. Commit a goal, small or big, to someone — whether it’s on social media, in writing, or to your friend, mom or spouse.

“I will do ___ number of activities every week with my kids to help make it a fun childhood for them!”

Who will you commit your activity goal to today?
