Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan are one of the most popular couples in the film industry. They got married on October 16, 2012 and have two adorable children named Taimur and Jae. Kareena and Saif have discussed their parentage many times in the past. Some of these insights also include invaluable parenting tips that will help you as a mom or dad. Check out their helpful advice for the special occasion of the couple’s 12th wedding anniversary.
1. If you have two kids, buy two of everything so they get along better.
In an old interview with The Indian Express, Kareena Kapoor Khan said: “My trick with both boys is to buy two of everything,” she revealed, adding that she always told her husband Saif Ali Khan to buy two no matter where he was.
2. Balancing childcare and work
Kareena once told Vogue India that she and Saif had an agreement. She revealed that when one of them was busy shooting a movie, the other decided not to work on a movie during that time.
3. Focus on quality over time with your children.
Speaking to Variety in 2023, the actress shared that she learned that the quality of time without distractions is more important than the amount of time she spends with her children. “Kids want and need attention from their parents, teachers and peers,” she says.
Saif Ali Khan also shared similar thoughts in a recent interview at India Today Conclave. He said it was important to him to spend quality time with each of his children, and he preferred to spend time with them individually as well as in groups.
4. Let your kids learn by trying it themselves first.
During a conversation at the Kareena Kapoor Khan Film Festival, Bebo spoke about regulating Taimur and Jae’s screen time. While she wants to get her kids to bed, she said she also reads instead of watching TV. Karina added: “I think they will learn from the example, so I wouldn’t have it any other way.” She explained that if children saw their parents on their phones or screens, they would want to do the same.
5. Instill good habits by example.
Karina, who spoke at an event earlier this year, said children pick up habits by watching how their parents talk. “Saif always tells us that we speak with love to each other, so our children will also speak with love to each other and to others.” she revealed. Beebo said he tried to instill respect in the children in this way.
