Em 101 Ideias Criativas para a Família, a ênfase é aproximar marido e mulher e pais e filhos. Todas as atividades propostas, mesmo as mais descontraídas, como as divertidas "caça ao tesouro", "piquenique no quintal", "noite dos elogios" e "rei por um dia", encerram lições profundas de afeto, respeito, companheirismo e confiança. O objetivo principal é suprir a falta de tempo que os membros da família têm para dedicar uns aos outros – mas, também, contornar crises e quebrar as barreiras que, tantas vezes, separam as pessoas dentro da mesma casa. 101 Ideias Criativas Para a Família mostra como resgatar a alegria e a comunicação no lar.

A quantidade de compromissos profissionais, escolares e sociais mantém pais e filhos distantes uns dos outros durante a semana toda. E, nos fins de semana, é a televisão, o jornal e a internet que, tantas vezes, fazem com cada um fique no seu canto, sem trocar palavra.
