Holidays are undoubtedly a time of great fun and an excellent opportunity for families to get together and strengthen their emotional and affective bonds. In and with family, children develop a series of skills that are fundamental to their harmonious development.

In fact, holidays provide parents and children with the opportunity to share experiences, discoveries and moments that can be essential for their growth as a family, generating a strong bond between them and a very pleasant time together.

Family fun

The family is the ideal context and privileged space for the development of the learning process and vacations are the ideal time to improve socio-emotional skills.

Family activities during the holidays should effectively provide rewarding and enjoyable moments for the whole family, but also be significant for the healthy growth of the child.

Above all, parents must choose activities that promote interaction between the whole family, thus providing fun moments and great relational quality.

Whether at home or outdoors, with family and/or friends, the important thing is to keep children active and enthusiastic. Social interaction is essential to stimulate social skills and allow children to develop their emotional intelligence and cognitive functioning.

Holidays: the importance of social interaction

Through social interaction, the child will be able to develop behaviors and forms of communication essential to creating and maintaining relevant social relationships.

Socialization also allows the development of speech and language, self-esteem, the ability to solve problems and deal with others and, above all, teaches respect for differences and the uniqueness of each person.

During the socialization process, children learn to evaluate and make decisions, and to listen to and respect the opinions of others. Social interaction also allows children to learn to deal with more adverse situations, seeking help from others in considering solutions. For this reason, the correct management of emotions becomes essential for full and healthy social coexistence.

In short, the child must truly live his/her childhood and develop the social skills necessary for his/her full development.
