There is nothing more enjoyable than attending festival with the whole family, an event to break away from daily routine of wake-work/ school-sleep. Lots of parents benefit from festivals, may they be hands on parents or working moms and dads. For some heading to festivals with their family is a chance of a lifetime bonding experience. Some however come home worn-out and upset after losing and having different outcome than expected with the events they've lost the valuable bonding opportunity.
the concept of Fairs and Festivals are made to promote friendship, family, fun and the bonus of helping others thru fundraising. Festivals are considered adventures for families, here they get to spend quality times together, strategize together, win or lose the important thing is that they had fun.
Parents who plan to bring the kids to fairs should take some factors into consideration to avoid tantrums and crying, bring kids to age related festivals. Nowadays, family oriented and kid friendly events are no longer enough. Bonding is better and boredom is lessened when both the destination and the activities are suited to kids 'age.
Plan with the kids. Gone are the days of the parents being the planner. Parents now are more aware that children especially teenagers, are more committed if they are included in decision making. Kids get to share their ideas on where to go, what to join and of course how to win in contests. Attend festivals that are relevant. Take consideration of your favourite subjects and TV icons. A simple Science project can come to life with a trip to earth and eco friendly festivals; it might be a fair of a lifetime to your little Einstein, or a jungle adventure for your little Dora. You can make the event relevant by psyching your family.
Lastly, live in the moment. After the long planning brainstorming, fun and activities, remember that this is your time for bonding and a time to be a "FAMILY". Relax and let go. Things might not go as planned always, but, who cares? Just enjoy and embrace every family moment. That's when true magic happens.
