Family Meals

linnettegoard | August 23, 2010

Finding time for family meals can be difficult, but is very important.  Make this a time to reconnect with family members and find out what is going on with them.  Eating together as a family has been proven to help reduce the chance that your child will get involved with drugs and alcohol.

As the new school year starts, it’s a good time to set some new routines.  Make family meals a part of your daily routine.

Make family meals simple and easy by planning ahead.  Use your crockpot for busy days, serving a fresh salad and fruit for side dishes.

    Hello, I am interested in using the picture from the above article entitled “Family Meals” of the black lady with her daughter from the website listed above for my brochure to promote family meals. Can you tell me how I can use this photo, etc? Thank you.

      This is a clipart picture from Microsoft Word, so it is available online for use.
