We’ve been asked by Cadbury Buttons to find out about the everyday precious moments you share with your child, that fill you with joy.

So, what are your everyday shared moments of joy? Perhaps it's singing along in the car to a favourite tune or re-reading a favourite book together? Maybe it's watching a favourite movie together for the umpteenth time, or that last cuddle before they go to sleep?

Whatever your shared moments of joy are, please share them with Cadbury Buttons (and each other!) below. If you have any pictures of these moments, please feel free to share them below, we’d love to see them! All MNers who post on this thread will be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 Love2Shop voucher.

Please note your posts and images may be included on Cadbury's pages on MN, their social media channels, and possibly elsewhere, so please only post if you're comfortable with this.

Thanks, and good luck!

picking them up from school on a friday is always special because we always have dinner in a local cafe before coming home.

Just honestly cuddling at bed time or when you have those moments when you know you are loved so much back

mumtowoo1 · 23/05/2016 19:03

love the mornings when we all have breakfast together, I love have that time with my two girls

alsproject · 23/05/2016 20:17

My favourite moment of joy is when my baby son does a dance when he is happy

amylcool · 23/05/2016 21:26

I love talking nonsense with my daughter, and when she comes out with something truly hilarious, which is always a surprise to me.

K3rry · 23/05/2016 23:15

I love it when I come home from work and my children ask me how May Day was and i love it when they tell me their stories from their day at school

Annbunce · 24/05/2016 10:29

Every day is a joy. From watching our favourite programmes together, to helping with homework and chores...

angiehoggett · 24/05/2016 15:04

when it gets to mother's day and I get all sorts of homemade concoctions!

maisiesnan · 24/05/2016 15:34

My best moments with my granddaughter at the moment are when we have "Shows" she will dance and sing her heart out after I have introduced her with my microphone (aka....a wooden spoon )

My son loves me reading to him at bedtime

mdanie89 · 25/05/2016 10:10

When they run up to you to share something they've made, seen, or thought of. It's lovely being their first port of call.

ICanSeeYourPixelss · 26/05/2016 10:48

When we walk home from school together, I look forward to talking about our day! Smile

When my little man had grown from his cot into a single bed, he had just started walking, and would come through to my bedroom early in the morning. I would lift him into my big bed beside me for a big morning cuddle. Priceless.

Robertgeneralmail · 29/05/2016 20:38

The moment of joy is that smile in the morning after your little one has been calling for you. Arms outstretched with a beaming morning smile. It makes the tiredness melt away!

sofieellis · 31/05/2016 13:52

Mine are too old for this now, but I used to love reading at bedtime. The run-up to bedtime always felt hectic, feeding, bathing and dressing three kids and getting them ready for bed. After the rush, they all used to snuggle up in my bed with me for half an hour, while I read to them - this was such a lovely, relaxing time, which I now miss!

cheryl100 · 31/05/2016 19:50

My son loves to watch tv with me in my bed. I go up extra early so we can spend an hour together watching wildlife programmes :)

Kangakate · 31/05/2016 22:08

Going for dog walks with our crazy dog, Kanga!

I love stories and cuddles at bedtime :)

maria08k · 02/06/2016 12:16

Giggling at grandads builders bum together.

southernsun · 02/06/2016 15:13

The hour between tea time and bath time where we get to play and have a laugh as a family after our day at work/school.

dirtypop · 02/06/2016 18:25

listening to them laughing and giggling

chunkychocky · 02/06/2016 20:28

When I'm able to leave work earlier than expected and I collect them from after school club early. They are as excited to see me as I am that I've been able to collect them early.

baconbap · 02/06/2016 20:40

The smile that lights up the face when I appear home

pepicola3 · 02/06/2016 21:27

We always snuggle up and read before bedtime

annmariec · 02/06/2016 22:22

My son dances on the toilet lid before and after brushing his teeth it's so sweet and always makes me smile , I'm sure it's to waste time before going to bed lol but it's just perfect and makes me laugh every night
