October challenge: spend 30 extra minutes outside together this week!

Take a walk, toss a ball, explore the yard, or head to the park. Sometimes kids just need a little space to MOVE.

What's your child's favorite way to get outside?

Here's an easy game for your next family night.

Put a random household item inside a bag and give everyone three clues to guess what's inside.
No peeking allowed!

Who in your family would figure it out first?

It's time for the Fall Family Olympics!

Pumpkin relay. Leaf pile race. Co****le. Sack race. You make the events and keep the score.

The only question is... are the parents ready to lose? 😄

October is National Book Month! 📚

Try something different and let your child choose a book based ONLY on the cover. Read it together and see if the story is anything like they expected.

What book is your child loving right now?

Building creations, getting lost in stories, and finding a little rainbow magic! 🌈📚💛 Afternoons at Maine’s Best!

Give the kids paper, markers, googly eyes, and craft supplies with one instruction:

Create a monster nobody has ever seen before!
The sillier, the better.

What would your child name their monster?

Turn those little pumpkins into a game!

Set up empty bottles or lightweight pins and use a small round pumpkin as the bowling ball. 🎃🎳
Kids can even decorate the pins before the game begins.

Who would be the most competitive bowler in your family?

Pumpkin bowling is a great way to upcycle plastic yogurt drink bottles. Have fun with your family this Halloween bowling with a small pumpkin and ghost pins!

Here's your October challenge: take ONE family photo where nobody has to be perfectly posed.

Jump in the leaves. Make silly faces. Let the kids be kids.
Sometimes those imperfect pictures end up being the favorites. 🍂

What's the best candid photo you've taken lately?

Those leaves on the ground can become more than a pile to jump in. 🍂

Collect a few different shapes and challenge the kids to turn them into animals, monsters, or silly characters using paper and glue.

What would your child create?
