It’s been said that time spent with family is worth every second, but it is so easy to get caught up in the fullness of life that time seems to slip away faster than we want it to. Long before the days of sheltering at home due to a global pandemic with unending family time, our family has loved carving out special time for family adventures. We love to travel, but we also really enjoy adventuring at or close to home. Everything from our weekly family movie nights to game nights, from themed dinners (with playlists included) to dance parties, from backyard adventures to exploring nearby towns, and more. So lately we naturally have turned to some of these family standard experiences to provide a sense of normalcy in an otherwise abnormal time.
For some, travel far from home may be a dream for now, so we began to think about how we might be able to share many of our creative ideas and experiences with other families to help bring fun and adventure into their own homes. Our ideas range from simple experiences with minimal supplies needed that can be completed in only a few hours to longer “getaways” – all designed to help families carve out special time together to make memories without having to travel far from home.
So set your watches to Family Standard Time, gather your family, choose your adventure, and let the memory making begin. We are excited to share some of our family standards with you!
