Happy first day of fall! 🍂⁣

Looking for some family activities to do this fall season, while still keeping it fun for your teens? We’ve got you covered!👇⁣

🔹 𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐂𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 – We know, those types of places might seem a little “lame” or too young for your teens…BUT, we’ve yet to meet a teen who didn’t like cider or donuts. 🤣⁣

🔹 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐩 – Whether going out into the woods or just in the backyard, teaching your kids how to build a tent, roasting hot dogs by the fire, and making s’mores is always a good time! ⁣

🔹 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 – Football and basketball season is upon us! So go to a major league event, or even a local college or high school game as a fun evening activity! ⁣

🔹 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 – Take your teen to your old stomping grounds! Showing your kids your old college, high school, or anywhere meaningful to you is a great bonding experience for everyone. ⁣

🔹 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐞 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 – Nobody ever dislikes a good ole’ family movie night! Great excuse to relax as a family, AND, if you wanna get fancy, set up a projector outside and watch the movie out by the fire! 🪵🔥⁣
