5 Reasons to bond with your family in Africa

  1. The science confirms you cannot separate healthy families and quality time
  2. If you plan it, they will come
  3. Holidays create space for connecting
  4. Bonding through first-time experiences adds a deeper level of connection
  5. Making memories for your family will contribute to the earth

  1. The science confirms it: you cannot separate healthy families and quality time.
    Families who enjoy group activities together share a stronger emotional bond, while children and adolescents who spend more time with their parents are less likely to get involved in risky behaviour. The simple act of eating dinner together at home predicts whether kids will have higher scores in school. The research confirms what we all intrinsically understand: quality time is the key to building strong families and well-rounded individuals – something every society in the world desperately needs.
  2. When my children all lived in one home, I instituted weekly family forums as one way to protect and nurture our nuclear family relationships. But now that they are all grown up with full lives and busy schedules and have families of their own; holidays are the easiest opportunity to come together as a family, to connect and to bond. If you plan it, they will come 🙂
  3. Family getaways provide a wonderful platform for fun group activities, thoughtful chats around the fire pit and plenty of delicious meals together.
  4. Bonding through experiences – especially first-time experiences – adds a deeper level of connection. From spectacular wildlife viewing opportunities and awe-inspiring vistas, tropical islands and spas, helicopter safaris, gorilla tracking, conservation experiences and boating excursions galore, this continent offers wonderful adventures to amplify your holiday bonding moments.
  5. Not only will a visit to this exceptional continent provide a magical, memory-making experience for your clan, but by choosing Africa you will also be contributing to the well-being and conservation of her flora, and fauna as well as her precious, local communities. There’s no better feeling than knowing you’re contributing to a variety of worthy causes during the season of giving!
