Ramadan: what are some ways a single parent can make up to children for time lost?
Being mother and father is not easy.
I need some ideas of things I can do with my children
that can help make up for the time we have lost together. .
within the limitations of a low budget, both money and time wise
they are little.

Been there done that… I always involved my kids in my duties.. cooking cleaning etc… Made the work finish faster and more time for us. I tried to make our free time count. We played games, talked. We still have morning time and before sleep time. We talk about everything and anything. I let them choose what we do. Video games movie crafts anything… It is their time and I try to make that clear to them. I also remind them everything I do is for them even if it takes my time. Helps when they understand why?
You can never make up for lost time. But you can make the most of your time and LOVE is free doesn’t cost a thing to give it.
Ideas:
take them to waterparks, zoos, beaches … anywhere you’ll make great memories
Take them to disney world in Florida! Kids love it!
First of all you shouldn’t need to make up time… But then again I don’t know the situation. You could try bonding activities such as fishing or maybe even coming over to dinner. You should talk and see how their life is going. They should understand.
very good question as i am a single parent of two boys and iti is very hard
i dont geta lot of time as boys have a very hectic schedule (so do i even though i dont work but boys schedule is pritoty compared to mine)
starred so will definatley check for other posters replies
Spend more times with them..
Cook them food that they love..
play some indore or out door game with them..
Just spend as much time with them as possible. It doesn’t matter what you are doing. board games, going to the park, just chatting. You can teach them to do household things, like sewing, cooking, etc., even the boys should learn in case of emergency, and then they’ll have good memories and increase their knowledge. Read to them. Have them read to you. Literacy is a lifetime gift.
Just be sure to spend your time and love on them as much as possible.
Good luck to you.
They are little PERFECT. i initially dint answer this question because i dint no if they were little or not.
Money requirement: NOTHING !
Take them to the mosque when there is a series of lectures going on, make them listen to it, then afterwards discuss it with them, what did you learn? and then talk about it.
once the talk has finished Read quran with them, make them pray alongside you.
It will be a good day, worth going out, ishallah
From experience , do things that count. Try anything that interests them and involves spending time. My son was away from me for a while to attend school outside of our district and now that he is back home we do things together that we both enjoy. We watch movies and eat popcorn and we play games, color with the younger ones and of course study Islam and make Salat together. My son loves cookies so we bake together, sometimes I let him help with dinner. Lots of times he sits in my room while I work just talking about everyday stuff. It doesn’t take money to be kind or hug your kids. They will remember the small things the most. One of the biggest things my son says he like most is when I send him a card or letter in the mail just to tell him how much I love him. Best Wishes.
