The tip on the 365 Smiles calendar: ‘Babysit for friends so they can go out’
is slightly adjusted due to the current circumstances.
Unfortunately, we are not allowed to babysit nor go out.
But we can sill help our friends with children!
What is the most precious resource for young parents? TIME.
Where goes a large chunk of that time? COOKING.
That’s right: thinking about the menu, getting the groceries, preparing the meal, (sometimes) searching for the utensil that was put in the wrong place, setting the table and cleaning afterwards is time consuming.
Tip for today:
Give your friends with young children some extra time and bring them a complete meal.
And to be clear, we mean the ‘whole shebang’. Take as much as possible out of their hands. Beside the food, you can bring them a basket with tableware, which they can give you back unwashed. So they do not have to care about the dishes.
That gives them time. Time to play carefree with their children in their own home.
Your friends have no kids? No worries, they too will enjoy this extra free moment!
