Tips for Disconnecting with the Family
Disconnecting from technology and connecting with my family was one of my resolutions last year. I have stuck with it to the best of my ability. It’s important for me to be close with my family. At the end of the day, they are all that matters. Here are some tips I want to pass on to you about disconnecting with the family.
Same time every week
It’s no joke that I’m busy and my kids are extremely busy. However, I still make it a point to pick a time each week and we get together. Whether it’s movie and pizza or a game night, we are all in. My family knows that each week, they better be there. That is how we all decompress and enjoy each other.
Put the phones down
I truly believe that one of the only ways to connect with the family is to disconnect from technology. Technology has its place every day, but when you’re with your family, Facebook and the Internet can wait. Again, your kids and family are who will be there are the end of the day.
Make the moments count
When it comes to disconnecting with the family and leaving technology behind, you need to make the moments count. You may not have a million minutes to spend together, which is why disconnecting is so important.
Gather around the The Basket of Warmth
The Basket of Warmth is unlike anything you have ever seen before. It is something that keeps your freshly baked Sister Schubert’s® rolls warm throughout dinner. Get this though, it only works if your family’s phones are plugged into it. What a way to keep the family accountable in the disconnecting area. It not only keeps the rolls warm throughout dinner, but it also charges the phones, while keeping them out of the way during family dinnertime. Sister Schubert’s Dinner Yeast Rolls are the only rolls we serve around here. They are soft, delicious, and so homey!
Get Sister Schubert's Dinner Yeast Rolls at Walmart
I bought my Sister Schubert’s Dinner Yeast Rolls at Walmart, the best place to shop! Sister Schubert’s Dinner Yeast Rolls provide homemade taste and a buttery scent in about 5-10 minutes.
Using my tips and the Basket of Warmth, my family and I were able to disconnect from life and connect with each other.
Turkey Casserole Recipe
We make this absolutely delicious recipe every year around the holidays. It is such a great recipe because it combines a lot of the leftover ingredients from any big holiday meal.
Ingredients
- 1 Package Egg Noodles, cooked (about 8 cups)
- 8 cups stuffing
- 7 cups chopped turkey
- 4 cups gravy
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the noodles, stuffing, turkey, and gravy in a large bowl. Mix together.
- Press mixture into the 5 liter casserole dish. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top. Cover and bake for one hour. Remove the cover and bake an additional 15 minutes.
- Note:If you need more gravy, just cut what you have with stock make with the Better Than Bullion Roasted Chicken Base.
- Cooking times assume all ingredients are cold. The casserole will take less time if using warm ingredients.

I like this basket. Not only does it look nice but it keeps the phones out of reach. It’s very functional. Spending time with family without the disruption of the internet is important.
How cool is that basket! Very neat. I lOVE disconnecting, but sometimes it can be hard for others to do it. I think this is a great idea, keeping them just out of sight for a bit!
Disconnecting is something we need to start doing as a family. It’s hard to put down our phones when so much we do can be done from them. I will agree that family is more important though and I personally need to put these tips into practice.
Those rolls look delicious! I love the idea of putting the electronics down, we do family dinner every Friday and try to play games and do all sorts of unplugged stuff.
We have a deal, no phones at dinner time! But we need to get better of making more time to spend together!
Those rolls look really good. I need to pick up a pack or two and try them out. I love rolls!
These look so delicious! I love this post! Your tips are so true! Disconnecting from technology is one of my resolution this year as well. 🙂

Wow, now these are great tips and that basket is awesome. As is the bread in it, yum!
I’m all about the rolls when it comes to holidays and food and those look DELISH! And yes to unplugging and spending quality tech free time with your loved ones!
I think it is important to disconnect from electronics and spend quality time together. These are great tips for getting everyone to be in the moment.
These rolls look so delicious. I always make sure the kids have put their cell phones away for dinner.
That is the coolest basket ever and the perfect Christmas gift! I always make sure to disconnect when I am with my family!
Oh, I love Sister Schubert’s dinner rolls, so I bet the yeast rolls are great, too. The smell is wonderful.
