The purpose of research conducted for this thesis was to examine which leisure time activities pupils do with their families and how often. The differences in spending leisure time with family based on the sex and the age of pupils have been analyzed, as well as the structure of their families and the place of residence. Also, the goal was to establish the activities pupils do more often with their father than with their mother and vice versa, or is their part in this regard the same. It was also examined which leisure time activites pupils would have wanted to do with their faimilies more often and what is neccessary to achieve that, according to their opinion. The opinions of 178 pupils from 5th and 8th grade of elementary schools in Slavonski Brod and its surroundings have been examined. The results have proven that pupils mostly spend their leisure time with families in a relaxed atmosphere at home, watching TV, reading, playing board games, and the rarest in adventurous activities that require some additional knowledge and skills, like fishing or hiking. It was established that there are no significant differences between pupils, considering previously mentioned independent variables and that most of the activities pupils do equally with both father and mother. The examinees believe that in order for their familiy leisure time to be of a better quality, the most important thing for them is to spend more time together, while money is the least important. The results have also shown that the majority of examinees wants to spend their family leisure time participating in some cultural and social events, like going to the movies, theatre, museum or concerts.
