Classic “20 questions”

I can’t even count how many times I played this when I was growing up. This game doesn’t require any supplies, it’s fully portable, and every round is different and unique!

Camp-out in your yard or living room

Use whatever you have at home to build a tent or fort if you don’t have a real tent. Tell silly stories before bed and eat marshmallows, or roast some over a backyard campfire.

Hello, dance party!!

This is one of our family favorites! Select 3-4 songs to dance to or watch tutorials on fun dances to learn together! You can also bust out a copy of Just Dance as well! Many epic dance battles have happened in our house with this game!

Go on a night-time hike with flashlights and glow sticks!

Find a special place nearby to walk and stargaze! Listen carefully for any wildlife like owls who make lovely music at night!

Family Talent Show

Oh, the fun your kids will have with this idea! Let them plan and conduct a talent show all on their own! It’s sure to be a wild, free, and fun time!
