4th of July Ideas:
Family Tradition: 4th of July Competitive Games!
Our family does 4th of July games every year and they get very competitive. I'm talking, I broke my collarbone in a wheelbarrow race competitive. This is such a fun tradition to do with your family! This year we are adding some toddler games to the mix. Want our list of games? Here's the running list we keep. Every year we choose several games from this list to compete. We do not do all of them. Some years 4th of July games run over the course of several days, some years it's just one day. What stays the same? There's always a trophy and a plaque with the winning couples name on it!
"Freedom Time Capsule"
Have each family member write a note about their favorite moment of the year so far, then tuck them in a box to open next July 4th.
