WOYC – Family Fun Friday

🏡 Family Friday 🏞️
Family Friday honors the important role families play in a child’s learning and growth. Whether it’s reading together, sharing a meal, or taking a walk, those everyday moments help build strong foundations and lasting memories. Today’s a great day to celebrate the love and learning that starts at home!

At home:        

  • Laundry basket toss (with “sock balls” and/ or real balls). Children see how many balls that they can throw into the basket within 30 seconds and count them at the end.
  • Parachute Play (use a twin sheet – and try to keep the ball in the air/ off the ground)
  • Coke Bottle bowling (coke bottle bowling pins, ball or sock, and towel for alley)
  • Play board games 
  • Cook a family/favorite recipe together

 In the Yard:

  • Visit the library – pick out and read books as a family.
  • Visit a museum – Children’s museum of the Upstate Spartanburg https://tcmupstate.org/
