Gemini Parent

The great communicator

As a Gemini parent, you bring a sense of fun and humour to your home. You love to challenge your family mentally, so you can often be found working on crossword puzzles with your children or playing a game of Scrabble after dinner.

Conversation and debate are a big part of your family life. You love reading to your children, taking them to the cinema, or watching a television programme together so you can discuss it afterwards. You value a keen mind and will raise your little ones to be as sharp-witted, curious and opinionated as you are.

Communication in general is one of your strengths, but Geminis are not so good at expressing their emotions. You get so caught up in the logic of things that you can neglect those closest to you. Make a special effort to let your children know how you feel. They need to be sure of just how much you love and support them and that they can turn to you for comfort.

Your children will adore your fun-loving, constantly moving mind. Your tastes change often, and your little ones are likely to find this both exciting and inspiring.

Make sure you provide them with some consistency as well though. To feel secure, they need parts of their day they can count on, like regular family dinners and a bedtime routine. There’s definitely a time and a place for your spontaneity and amusement.
