Some of my best memories as a child are of sitting around the table together as a family, sharing meals and conversations, discussing plans and daily happenings. Indeed, some of the best memories I’ve created with my husband were made over a thoughtfully prepared meal. Once our son was 6 months old, he too joined us at the family table, providing us with the opportunity to make our own family memories together.
The power of sharing a meal together as a family cannot by underestimated.
Here are a 5 reasons why family meals really are that important.
1. Role Modelling
2. Reconnect
3. Improve Weight Control
4. An Opportunity to Teach
5. The Power of Conversation
