Take family outings

Family outings can be as simple or grand as your family wants to make them. The important thing is that you are together.

Here are some ideas for family activities:

  • Music—attend concerts or recitals.
  • Drama—attend plays, movies, or operas.
  • Social—go out for ice cream or have a picnic or party.
  • Education—visit a museum, zoo, historical site, or library.
  • Nature—go hiking, camping, or for a drive in the country.
  • Sports—attend athletic events, play games in the yard, go biking.
  • Work—paint the house, plant a tree, do gardening.
  • Service—help a homebound neighbor, take food to the homeless, participate in community service projects.
Plan activities that appeal to your entire family. When you let your children help you plan, your time together can include activities everyone will enjoy.
