10 Family Day Ideas
Family time is sometimes under-rated by family members. As parents we get busy with work and school and social gatherings. As children, they focus on their friends, friends, and friends. Teens do so more than younger children. We believe that spending time with the family is a very high priority. Educated Mommy Magazine wants to get you thinking about fun activities the family can enjoy together. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Visit a local museum such as an art or science museum
2. Visit your local library(teach the children how to best utilize all the resources there)
3. Attend a play together
4. Visit and volunteer at a nursing home(show the children the joy and giving of their time to others)
5. Attend a family movie(don’t forget to discuss all the good parts afterwards)
6. Have a family game day(with all the games your family enjoys)
7. Have a spelling bee with the family(being sure to use age appropriate words)
8. Visit a local garden/horticultural center
9. Take a walk in the fresh spring breeze(notice and talk about all of nature while you walk)
10. Have a picnic ( spread a blanket on the living room floor if weather doesn’t permit)
These or any other activities your family enjoys together are all great. The thing to remember is that time spent together, doing whatever, will be the best days in the lives of all of you. Have fun together, enjoy your family TODAY.
