Winter Get-Away

Are you ready for summer vacation yet? I am! Why not take a look at the must-see places where you live? Pretend you're a tourist in your own town. Winter "Stay-cation" an article by Family Fun has some really good ideas for making a "stay-cation" really seem like a real get away from "do-not-disturb" signs for everybody's doors, to the room service breakfast menu - at your own house!

(Do you babysit? Why not plan a theme night for you and the kids? A very pretend trip to the pages of a favorite story. For example, watch Alice in Wonderland and have a "tea" party at the "mad hatters" kitchen table (maybe bake cookies to bring with you as a special treat). If the kids don't drink tea, serve milk instead. You could also play charades and guess the characters from the story.)

Have fun!
