Family Fun Day

The easiest way to bring a family closer together is to have a special day each week devoted just to family time. It's not important what you do but that you do it together. Keep a positive attitude about doing things other family members enjoy.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Time to devote to one another on a weekly basis.
  1. Step 1

    Set a specific day and time each week to spend together as a family. Put it on your calendar and respect it as sacred family time.

  2. Step 2

    Have everyone write down a few ideas for family fun and and throw them in a hat. Take turns picking an idea from the hat each week.

  3. Step 3

    Use family time to establish bonds, find common interests and learn from each other.

  4. Step 4

    Use your family fun day to help others. Spend time in a soup kitchen or back cookies together, sell them and donate the money to a charity.

Tips & Warnings
  • Allow your kids to pick things they enjoy doing.
  • Don't edit anyone's choices for things to do on family fun day.
