How much quality time is your family spending together? The New York Post reports that the average American family is spending only 37 minutes each day together. Parents and kids alike are overscheduled and stressed out. What downtime they do have seems to be taken up by digital devices. That’s not good for any member of the family. In fact, the American College of Pediatricians writes that there are three big benefits of spending more time together as a family: better behavior, less stress, and a stronger family bond.
Wish your family was spending more quality time together? Sunrooms offer you the space you need for more family gatherings.
How a Sunroom Can Help Increase Family Time
Creates a Neutral, Peaceful Zone in the House
Sunrooms are sanctuaries within a busy household. Using your sunroom for family time can create a neutral and peaceful space for quality time. Your family can come together to discuss issues and achievements or just to relax and hang out together in an area built for you.
Offers Space for Creative Family Pursuits
If you have a family, there is a good chance your home is already feeling crowded. That means it can be tough to find enough space to spread out to enjoy activities like crafts, puzzles, or board games. But your sunroom can become a family hobby space where you can enjoy new pursuits together without worrying about cleaning off the dining room table in time for dinner.
It’s Available in Every Season
One of the drawbacks of having family time away from home is that the option might not always be available. Weather can prevent you from driving there. Opening and closing hours might not fit in with your busy schedule. But your sunroom is always open and available! All-season sunrooms maximize your quality time opportunities, too, because you’ll be able to use the space no matter the weather.
