“Stories that form the backbone of family history help new generations appreciate their lives, understanding the morals and ideals of parents and grandparents”, said Melinda Dalacas, manager of Southwest Spas and Pools.
Here are 3 ways to keep history alive and strong in the modern family by observing family stories month.
Provide a Fun Gathering Spot for Family Stories with a Hot Tub – Getting families together in today’s high-tech world can be challenging. Yet, making time to develop togetherness promotes family story telling. Hot tubs create a wonderful atmosphere that encourages everyone to turn off televisions and phones, push away from the computer and gather in one spot.
Learn From Grandparents – Don’t forget the older generation when it comes to teaching children about the past. Encourage grandparents to share stories with younger family members. Listening to the tales of long-past family history strengthens families, while helping senior citizens stay mentally sharp.
Create a Family Story Book – Create a book filled with stories about family events. Encourage everyone to write about their lives, adding photos with descriptions. Be sure to add pictures of ancestors too — who they were in the community and stories about their lives. A family storybook can be passed on from generation to generation, helping new family members stay connected to the past.
