Your WIN for day #y:
Plan an adventure to solidify your wins and plan for more wins
Some ideas for questions to ask:
- Did you feel good about this week? Why yes/no?
- Which things would you want to do again (what did you enjoy)? Why?
- Which things did you not enjoy as much? Why?
- Did you learn anything about yourself this week?
- Did you learn anything about me (dad) this week?
- Are there other ideas you have for ways we can connect as a family?
- Do you have any questions for me?
- Use 3 words to describe this week.
Some other ideas for your discussion:
- Define/explain what it means to be intentional
- Affirm that you want to continue to build relationships with your kids
- Tell your kids the reason(s) you wanted to take this "intentional dad challenge"
- Plan some specific days/times for the ideas and activities you talked about doing again
- Pray together for your relationships to continue to grow closer
Way to go, Dad! 7 days of intentional WINS!
