DAY 24 CHALLENGE:
PLAYFUL FUN!
And the weekly It’s Playtime! Party!
DAY 24 CHALLENGE:
Spend (at least) 15 minutes getting down on the floor with the kids and have some fun! Start tickling, chasing, or maybe even some safe rough housing!
Happy Thanksgiving play challengers!
This is a great challenge for today, because you could get multiple members of the family involved(uncles, grandpa, dad would be great at this challenge!)! So instead of lounging in the recliner after dinner, get some fun in first!
(Remember to keep it uninterrupted time: being present with the child. No technology, phones, television, computer, etc. No errands, chores, making dinner, etc.)
I think my kids could do this for hours, however it is really a workout for me!
We absolutely love doing this though. Here’s some ideas to get you started:
- Have a tickle fest!
- Play chase, they chase you, or you chase them. Take turns!
- Rough house or wrestle in a ‘safe’ manner.
- Get a blanket out! Play under or over them, or even roll them up.
- Just run like maniacs! Have fun!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Enjoy your families.

This ‘Challenge’ is meant to get you started, to spark your creativity with your kids (and their creativity!). Your child may not be interested in this specific challenge, and that’s okay! Have another go at a previous challenge, or don’t be afraid to just sit and play with them and see where they lead you.
