Establishing A Family Narrative

Recently I read this article on how family stories create strong families and resilient kids. It came from this New York Times article and I really enjoyed it and it got me thinking about the

It wasn't just knowing the family history facts, but having it told often at family dinners, holidays, family reunions, car trips etc that made the difference

I've written a Family Home Evening Lesson plan that outlines 10 activities that could be done on this topic.  Go here for the full lesson:
