An Urban Parent's Guide to Raising Cultured Children | Observer

With all the distractions of the city, it seems there?s never really time for much of anything?particularly not for enjoying those very distractions. You and your kids have your hands in this and that, lending your limited and often sparse attention to a cultural event here, or a social gathering there, but when was the last time you forgot about the ticking hands on your watch face and took joy in the simple act of being together?

For the next seven weeks, we follow families that do.???

Each day, with every meal and chore, these New Yorkers take a step back from it all. From neighborhood outings to museum visits, we connect with parents and their kids about how they keep their busy schedules in check and?make?time for what matters at the end of the day, when soccer season is over and to-do lists are crossed off: each other.

We also look to Houston, Miami, San Francisco and Chicago to see what they have to offer families who are searching for ways to be a part of each others? everyday lives.

When it comes to your family, who doesn?t have a moment to spare?
