As a parenting expert with over a decade of experience in early childhood education, I created The 5-Minute Connection Menu to solve a problem I see every day: parents want to connect with their kids, but they’re overwhelmed and short on time.

This printable one-pager gives you 20+ no-prep, screen-free connection ideas, broken down by age group (toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age kids). Every idea takes 5 minutes or less, but leaves a lasting impact.

These aren’t generic “play with your kid” suggestions. Each activity is backed by what we know about child development and parent-child attachment. You’ll know exactly what to do, who it works for, and why it matters.

You’ll walk away with:

• A clear, easy-to-use menu of fast connection starters

• Targeted ideas that actually work for your child’s age

• A tool that makes intentional parenting feel doable today

You don’t need more time. You need the right tools. This is one of them.

Use it forever.
