JAKARTA - Many studies show that activities with family such as sports, eating together, outdoor activities can strengthen emotional relationships between family members, help increase a sense of togetherness and reduce stress.

In the context of Indonesia, according to the 2022 Indonesian Child Profile published by the Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (PPPA) shows that generally families throughout Indonesia are used to carrying out activities together at home such as eating, learning, talking, and reading books together.

Of the variety of activities carried out together, only 47.93% carried out activities that are generally carried out outside the home such as playing, creating, or exercising. This shows the importance of creating a balance between activities inside and outside the home to ensure optimal quality of bonding.

The good news, according to the 2024 Indonesia Millennial Report, is that the Indonesian millennial generation is now increasingly concerned about the health and well-being of their families. In addition to considering sport as the main key to maintaining mental and physical health, they also appreciate the time spent with their families as an important foundation for building stronger relationships.
