Last week I challenged you to take an accounting of each family member’s technology use in preparation for seeking more technology/family time balance. If you are looking for ways to spend more time together, here are some fun family activities that even the most technologically-dependent child or teen will enjoy.
1. Take a two-hour trail ride on horseback.
2. Go bowling.
3. Take a bus or train to a neighboring community for a day trip.
4. Go roller skating or ice skating.
5. Visit a museum.
6. Take a local hike.
7. Rent bicycles and search out a new bike path.
8. Go to the zoo.
9. Volunteer at the local animal shelter.
10. Serve a meal at a homeless shelter.
11. Take a firehouse tour.
12. Eat at a new restaurant, maybe even with food from a different culture.
13. Make a fort!!! (Rebelling again: why stop at 12)
