36. Shared stories
Listening to children share what's going on in their lives is essential if you are aiming to create a joyful home. You can start by asking them about their day was when they get home from school and join some of their conversations during dinner or break time.
Children will realize that their parents care about them if they spend time with the family and listen attentively. This way, they learn to confide in their parents when something is on their minds. The topic of conversation could be about what they learned that day or the games they played on the playground.
