Take Time to Play

These days it seems to be the norm to be busy all the time. We run here and there, either working, shopping or seeking entertainment. We spend a lot of in search of diversion. However, some of the best times can be had at home, just spending time with the family. Here are a few suggestions:

Eat dinner together. Ideally, eating dinner apart should be done no more than once a week. These family times can be great ways to bond and learn about each other. Light a candle for fun and try setting the table a little fancier one night a week.
Play board games, pool, ping pong together as a family. If you don't have family, call and invite a few people over. Put out some snacks and drinks. It doesn't have to be fancy or complicated to have fun.
Take a hike or walk in the neighborhood with family or friends. It is healthy, enlightening and enjoyable!
Host a night to share things you no longer want. Have everyone bring items. Number each item, lay them out and have a silent auction. The highest bidder wins the item. Donate the money to charity. Or, just have people draw numbers. Each person gets their turn at picking out his/her favorite item. You may want to take pictures or videos of the event. This can be lots of fun and really funny!
Have your neighbors over for coffee. When was the last time you even said "Hello" to your neighbors? You may just end up making some great new friends.
Rent movies and relax with your family and friends.
Make a family scrapbook/album together. Have each person write comments about the various photos.
Pick up the phone and call friends and relatives. When was the last time you spoke in person (versus email or letters)?
