The kids are restless, Dad’s glued to the torrential downpour of football games on the TV and the kids are BORED. What’s a holiday-exhausted Mom to do? Forget shopping, chores and barking back at bored kids, try something different and have some holiday fun. Try these three Mom-friendly activities. You’ll be glad you did. So will your kids.
Fun Time #1: Take the BORED out of Board-dom. Go to that forgotten stack of board games in the back closet and re-introduce your kids to great classics like Operation, CandyLand, Battleship, Clue , Trouble and more. Get even more basic, play a game of checkers! Show your kids that fun and entertainment don’t have to blip, flash, explode or require double AA batteries.
Fun Time #2: Story Time. Wait until bedtime, slip on the PJs, warm up the hot chocolate and fire up the fireplace. Get the gets comfortable and focused, then re-kindle the magic of yesteryear with Story Time that tells a dramatic, kid-relevant story—a story that shares the real story of Christmas through the eyes of Little Star. This new children’s book from Author Anthony DeStefano tells the story of one little, insignificant Star and how he becomes more than significant by ushering in a newborn King named Jesus.

Fun Time #3: A Hilarious History Lesson. Give your kids the laugh of a lifetime and share a little of your family history too. Blow the dust off those photo albums—and boxes of old photos—and let them see you and Mom when you were kids and teenagers. Yeah, they’ll gasp and gawk and never stop ribbing you about it. It’s a great time to reminisce and roar with laughter. Plus, your kids will now understand why you’re always taking their pictures. You can make fun of them in 20 years!
Happy Holidays!
