Play a Card Game | Day 23 Creative Christmas Countdown

The Outlaw Mom BlogAre your days feeling busy and full?  Today’s activity is an easy way to pull back together for a little fun: play a card game!

Chrissy of The Outlaw Mom Blog made an awfully cute card game for her family:

Of course, you can always just grab a deck of cards and play crazy eights, go fish or slap jack.  Or do any of you remember Spoons!? (You can google Spoons card game if you don’t know it.) My brothers and sister and I used to LOVE that one!

Anyway- play a card game.  When people are sounding grumpy and snappish- it’s probably time to stop worrying about that one more thing and connect for a minute.

One more day to go on our Creative Christmas Countdown.  If you’ve joined me just for this countdown, I welcome you and encourage you to sign up for my newsletter for an easy way to catch the best of Creative With Kids; a biweekly round up of my top posts, and ideas from around the web for encouraging creativity and connection in your family:
