As hours, days, and years passes; having fun is not an option in people’s calendar anymore. Do you remember what it was like to be a kid, running around without a care in the world? Or the time when all what matters was a football game, or a Barbie tea party, or getting ice cream? Well, stop remembering because Oreo will take you back in time with 10 tips to bring out the kid inside you.
What’s the purpose of bringing out your inner child? Well, it to help you get to a happier, more relaxed place. Many of our problems are due to the child spirit that lives inside us – our early experiences that shaped our attitudes. The main difference between children and adults is the amount of experience that they’ve had. Children need to live their childhood age in all aspects. And so does the child in us. People should place worries, doubts, judgments, and egos aside, and live a true moment with themselves.
Here are some Oreo suggestions to help you enjoy simple pleasures of life. So set the child in you free!
- Take some time each day to do something that makes your heart smile so deeply. Dance in the rain, finger paint, or a football game in the neighborhood.
- Buy yourself your favorite cartoon character costume, invite your friends for a costume party and be the childhood hero you always wanted to be!
- Get your favorite cartoon DVD and watch it with your kids, imitate the character as you used to do when you are kid and set yourself free.
- Share more time with your kids… why not do the Oreo ritual of Lick, Twist and Dunk with them?
- Disconnect yourself from technology! No phones, no internet, no play station, no computer. Enjoy childhood fun with a game of Lego, monopoly, or hide & seek. Remember at your time, there was no Facebook or iPads.
- Healthy food and calories obsession? Well, take a day off and have another pack of biscuits, cotton candy or an ice cream and then run like a kid pretending to burn those calories!
- Convert your daily chores to something fun. Put your rules and disciplined actions aside for a moment, and challenge yourself!
- Lend a helping hand and give yourself credit- save that kitten from the tree, help that lady cross the road or share a moment with the less fortunate!
- Treat yourself with a holiday, you can never be too busy for family so grab your bags and get out there!
- Give tomorrow a chance and allow yourself to dream.
While seeking your inner child again, you will eventually have to return to responsibilities, but come back with new happy childhood memories. Keep in mind that you can always go back in time & live happy moments of the past, in order to be able to live a happier present with yourself and your loved ones!
