July is Black Family Month Ideas
No family reunion planned this year? No problem, you can still have fun celebrating the month. Here are some ideas that were sent int to us:
Pick up the phone-We don't realize how we let time get away from us. Make a point to phone a family member this month, just to say hello.
Take a class (yoga, knitting etc.)
Home Improvement-Does grandma's livingroom really need a clean coat of paint? How about fixing up the familyroom to suit everyones needs. Take time together to make an improvement in your home.
Read to your kids/have your kids read to you.
Weekend field trip anywhere-visit a museum or a new destination, try a new activity.
Has everyone seen the Doctor this year? - Make an appointment for everyone to get checked out at the same time.
School- If you have kids why not plan a day visiting a college campus. It's never too early to get them interested. Most Campuses have year round activities as well.
Join an organization
Make up your own family tree- Make a project out of finding out as much about your family as you can and record the information.
Single?-Invite some family members over for dinner. If you are really feeling daring; invite some members you have never met in person. Take a trip to see family members.
Family Time at home can be as simple as doing a puzzle or making sure you're eating dinner together.
Host a party
We want your ideas! Tell us how you spent your month.
