About this listen

The average parent has approximately 950 weeks with a child before he leaves home. If they have a seven-year-old, they have 400 weekends left. How can families maximize this dwindling time? They can’t eliminate the distractions of modern life. They can’t give their kids a pill to keep them two forever. In fact, no amount of praying or repenting will give them the meaningful family they desire. What’s the solution? Create regular traditions that bring joy, significance, and memories to family life.

Popular blogger and mom of three, Jessica Smartt explains why memory-making is the puzzle piece that today’s families are longing for. She highlights 10 tradition-gifts kids need most and offers practical encouragement to modern parents to keep on adventuring - even when they are fighting distractions, are budget-pressed, and exhausted.

A rich resource of 200-plus unique traditions and beloved family recipes available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I loved this book as it's very core is about cherishing all the moments that make us parent, it's about celebrating every day, and making each moment special. it really resonates with me as it's how I want to always aim to approach parenthood and it's a lovely reminder to make time to stop and smell the roses

cherishing the journey

The great, underlying message of this book is lost by the authors bias toward her faith (which was not mentioned in the synopsis).

This book could have been a 5 star book without all the preaching.

Too evangelical
