We get the wellies on and go outside, there are plenty of nature reserves and parks around, and we always find little adventures to have :)

Rough housing and lots of tickling!

We like to bake (todays effort pictured) or play card games on rainy days and get out on our bikes when it's nicer.

We go on adventurous walks in the woods and the beach and have a treasure list of things to look for. For instance, types of birds, shells, trees etc.

We like to walk along the beach with the dog, enjoy a quiet picnic and go for 'mystery tours' in the car!

We love going for walks - today we've been to look for the Gruffalo in the woods - fun and good exercise.

Winter months we have Saturday night as family night ... We either play board games, watch a movie - with popcorn of course :) or complete a puzzle together.

Summer months is all about being outside, croquet or badminton on the grass, evening walks, beach days, camping exploring the local area and following walks (with the little yellow arrows to follow)

We just spend time together, even doing chores is a fun family event! we always eat together and we always put our son first :)

We eat together and have a laugh

We are quite outdoorsy so love to chuck the tent in the car and go off for a spot of camping. THat way we can go exploring, walking, climbing, nature trailing and enjoy evenings round our little fire playing cards.

walks along the canal

Earlier this year we got family membership of a gym and we try to do something active like swimming, doubles badminton or tennis as a family. Of course we still do the usual cinema, walks and even watching our local football team and I really value the time we spend as a family. My DS1 is 12 and DS2 is 10 and the time has flown by.

Bowling

We take the dog for a walk as a blast of fresh air does us all good and it's something we can all do together. My boys love to take their scooters and race each other around the oark.

Walking the dogs, geocaching, playing charades and monopoly. The list could go on and on

We are fortunate to live just 15 mins from the coast and we like nothing more to go for a walk and share a bag of chips watching the world go by.

We play board games on rainy days and also the Nintendo Wii which I think is perfect for all ages! We visit the park regularly with footballs to have a 'kick about' and spend time outside as a family! We also love to bake and will often spend a Sunday helping to prepare dinner and baking yummy treats like cupcakes, homemade ice cream and cheesecakes!

This used to be so easy when they were all young children, there was always a consensus of opinion amongst them as to where they wanted to go out to as a family, I think they used to discuss it in advance all the better to get us parents wrapped around their little fingers. It was usually a farm they wanted to go to, Pennywell farm or Paignton zoo, or somewhere else to do with animals and if they were happy and having fun then so were we adults. Now my two oldest have left home within a couple of months of each other and my youngest daughter who is 15 is the only one at home with us and its very difficult to bond and have fun, just organising so that we are all in the same place at the same time is nightmare enough. I do feel sorry for my youngest it must be very difficult for her to be the much younger (and therefore indulged by the other two) sister one minute and the centre of attention and then suddenly like an only child the next. I'd love to know if anyone who has been through a similar situation has any good tips.

Anything from making indoor tents to picnics, bike rides and of course doing the Daddy shuffle on a dancing game.

We love going for muddy walks and finding all the muddy puddles to jump in on the way. Then we find somewhere for hot chocolates and cookies and then somewhere else for a nice lunch. Especially like going to the coast for this and then get fish and chips too! A little nose in some gift shops to round the day off. It's all about muddy puddles for my 20 month old dd though!

Although it's the laziest thing we do, Saturday night take away and telly is by far my favourite. It's so relaxing with no rush to get anywhere or sometimes it's completely crazy if we are jumping around the living room to some songs. x

We like to go for Walks in the countryside or in the Lake District. We also enjoy baking and cooking at home.

we head out exploring, beaches ols castles, forests, anything to spark imagination and to wear the little ones out!

We have a wrestle on the floor, that's always good fun

Movie nights, cooking, reading stories
