10 Plans for Activities for a 3-Day Weekend for Busy Parents
As a busy parent, your planner and calendar become the most important tool of your life. There is so much to do and keep track of each day. You get excited when you know a 3-day weekend is around the corner! You know you will have an "extra" day to catch up and even get ahead. You can just use the extra time to rest, watch television shows and sleep in. But consider the 50/50 option. Plan ahead for 50% of the time to be used for fun and spending time with the family and the other 50% of the time doing what is necessary, such as errands you have put off due to lack of time. In other words, 50% should be used productively, and 50% should be used for rest, relaxation, and fun. When the weekend ends, you'll be happy and relieved to know you spent the time wisely!
