Do you have a child who loves to write? Why not put your child's talent to use and bring your extended family together? Find out how the family meeting can help.
The Family Meeting:
Within the family meeting explore writing a family newsletter for the extended family by asking:
- Who wants to create a fun family newsletter?
- Who wants to be reporters?
- Who wants to type the information?
- Will the newsletter be sent by email?
- How often will the newsletter be sent?
What should be in the family newsletter?
- Will it start with an inspirational quote?
- How about a joke?
- How a place for announcing a member's accomplishments?
- Will the reporters call or email Grandma, Uncle Bill, or Aunt Sally for news about them?
- How can every member of the family be rotated into the newslettrs so no one is left out for long periods of time?
Family newsletters keep families together. You can read them at family meetings. Send them to all the relatives. Discuss them at family reunions and other celebrations.
Keep them in special binders and save as precious memories.
Life is so busy. Why not use the family meeting and newsletters to keep your family alive, happy and together?
