It was quite effective for us.

I also, have to make an effort to get outside with the little ones, but it's getting much easier with all of this nice weather! Short trips to the library, or to the neighborhood park are fun times for our children, always.

It is easy to find alone time with kids, when you think about it. This morning my little girls came in the kitchen wanting to help with breakfast. They each had a turn slicing strawberries with me.

When my husband is out of town I'll have the older kids (one at a time) stay up late with me. We get to talk, play games, work on projects and sometimes have a special treat.

Just taking a minute to sit and read a book when asked makes a little ones so happy!
