How can we develop greater harmony in our homes?

I remember when I was growing up as a child that my family spent Monday nights together. We would start with a prayer and butcher what we wanted to call a song. We would talk about family business and vacations etc. We then had a spiritual message and an activity. Following the activity we would close with a prayer by blessing refreshments (brownies or rice crispy treats usually) and then eat up. This experience is something that happens in Mormon homes all over the world and is called FHE ( Family Home Evening).

I know that when my family forgot to have it our weeks were full of arguments and frustration. I know that a simple task or time to spend together is what brings families closer together.

Another way that my family's home achieved greater harmony on our home was by having dinner at the dinner table all together, or at least whoever was home, and discussing our day.
