[quote=Anonymous]You need to start some traditions. It will mean a lot to them. Taco Tuesday? Pizza Wednesday? Prepare a meal TOGETHER. Talk about your side of the family and build some history. Tell them stories from your youth. One of those nights each week is movie night. A weekly hike (if you’re in DC there are tons). Don’t ask, say “we’re doing this. Get your jacket” Christmas list making. Stump them with riddles (google is your friend). Talk To them about the holidays. How you want to celebrate. Things they want to do. What skills do you have? What is your job? Teach them about money? The stock market? Are their beds comfortable. Are YOU comforting when they might be feeling a bit scared (“lights out!”) or unstable in their new routine? Most important, I think is get outside with them. Throw a freaking ball![/quote]
