HOW MUCH QUALITY TIME DO YOU SPEND AS A FAMILY ? WITH AN EVER-GROWING LIST OF TASKS TO ACCOMPLISH EACH DAY , IT ’ S EASY TO LET TIME WITH YOUR PARTNER AND CHILDREN SLIP DOWN YOUR PRIORITIES .

W hat exactly does ‘ quality time ’ mean ? It ’ s an expression we hear often but is hard to quantify – every family is different , and its meaning will vary from household to household . For some people it may mean pulling out the board games once a week , for others it ’ s having in-depth conversations around the dinner table , and for some it may be enjoying an outing together .

Whatever it means to you , it ’ s essential that you make it a priority for yourself , your relationship and your family .
Tomjachu Bush Retreat , with its 12 sleeper Valbonne Villa provides a sanctuary for families looking to spend quality time together to create timeless memories for all . As Tomjachu Bush Retreat is a third generation family owned destination , family is what they do best .
In the fast pace life we as South Africans lead , it is often difficult to carve out time to spend with your children and parents . Why not escape to the Lowveld bush for a relaxing , family bonding holiday at a 5 star , self-catering luxury resort .
Children love vacations . Not because they get to go to Disney World or some other place they ’ ve idealised in their minds , but because of a much richer treasure . Usually , parents are more relaxed , more fun , more emotionally available . It ’ s common for kids to say that their favourite summer memory is something simple , like lying on a blanket looking at the stars with the family . These sweet pleasures are the golden experiences that shape rich childhood memories .
Kids also love vacations with extended family . They follow the older cousins around like puppies , and forge lifelong bonds with the kids their own age . These visits often shape their memories of grandparents and provide a sense of heritage .
