Siblings Who Can Rely on Each Other

Every parent wants siblings who are friends or at least get along.  I have found that a key to creating that bond between siblings is adventuring together.  Many times activities are easier if you bring a friend for each child, but then you cut down on that interaction and relationship development between your kids.  

Our intentional choice to get out as a family on adventures, camping, hiking, skiing, swimming, and whatever else has truly developed a strong bond between my son and daughter.  They don't always get along, but know they can depend on each other.  

In a world, where friendships come and go, if you have more than one child take time to have them do activities together.
