There’s a certain time of the year when kids from all walks of life and all ages anticipate every year. That time of the year is not Christmas nor is it Halloween. It’s that time of the year when kids are let loose from the routine of school into a world all their own where no one cares if they are out later than 6. Summer time is one of the most anticipated events of the year for good reasons too. During summer, kids can get a few weeks of rest and relaxation from the daily school grind. Nothing but kids indoor games, hours of playing, relaxation, hanging out with friends and fun until the sun goes down.
Games to go
But what are some of the things that kids can indulge in during this long respite from school. Some parents take the time off to join their kids on holidays and vacation trips. Some families plan the trip for the rest of the year, some may even take longer.
Some families start of their family getaway by planning on whether to spend time in the old country or spend it in the boathouse near the lake. Whatever the destination may be the most important thing on these trips is the time spent together by the whole family.
There two kinds of vacation trips that families go on during the summer, one of them would be a cross country drive to the upstate farms and families that we love/hate to spend time with. Grandpa with the old banjo on the front porch while grandma’s whipping up a serving of moonshine, now that’s the kind of family straight out of the Dukes of Hazzard. On the other hand some families go all out with their vacations, they put together a couple summer’s worth of savings to go outside the country on a tropical island getaway. The most common places that people frequent are Hawaii, the Bahamas, Jamaica and South American countries where the sun is hot and the beach is hotter.
Whether or not you and your family will be an out of towner or just an upstate visitor one of the most important things to remember is that wherever you’re going the most important thing to have is a good time. A secret to a real good time is the activities that plan to have when you’re there or on your way there. Packing up a few games wouldn’t hurt instead it could make your trip more pleasant and enjoyable. Some kids nowadays have long forgotten the value of family interaction through value reinforcing games.
Family games like Monopoly and Scrabble are good games to play with the closest of your kin. It’s sad though that the digital age has made interaction more of an experience with computers rather than people, but through games on the road and during family trips these games reinvent itself with children.
They are more than just kids’ indoor games; they are tools to making families come closer together through social interaction and quality time.
