Get The Family Together With These Family Fun Games

Bringing the entire family together to play fun family games is a great way to spend time together. These games can take form in multiple ways. Fun family games can include outdoor field games, board games, card games or even spending time indoors on rainy days.

Handball and Dodgeball are some of our favorite fun family games that are good for children (and adults!) Getting out in the fresh air increases alertness while playing team sports develops social skills. Being physically active helps with coordination and a general feeling of wellbeing, plus it elevates a child's self esteem. Playing team sports as a family helps develop family togetherness and teamwork.

We play a lot of board games during the long winter months. Thanksgiving usually consists of playing cards and board games after dinner. To keep people up to welcome the New Year, we planned long board games like Risk or Monopoly. 

Crafts and hobbies are another great way for the family to spend time during the wet season. Learn how to crochet, read aloud books or listen to audio books.
