3 Resolutions for Parents
Parenthood.com

Parenthood.com Give the Gift of YOU! Present coupons for special times reserved for you and the recipient: an hour or two of reading aloud, baking cookies, learning the basics of a craft, a little construction project, maybe some time in nature. Fit the activity to the age and interests of the child, and remember that a big part of the gift is your undivided attention.

Parenthood.com Time-together gifts. Give the gift of TRAVEL & ADVENTURE. The gift is the journey, not the destination. You don’t have to travel the world to have an adventure. Take a ride on a boat, train or bus. Look for ferry rides or places where you can rent a rowboat in your area. For train or bus trips, take her on a ride to t...he next county or across town. Choose a less-busy time of the day so you’ll have plenty of time to talk and explore.

I often did this for all holidays when my children were younger. Covering their table in plain white paper or brown kraft paper also worked, as they could decorate their own "places" with crayons or markers before the big meal.
