When I was in High School, I dated Sean – the most adorable Mormon boy with an infectious sense of humor. We went to dances at the Church; he knew every word to all the songs and would share his 1980′s form of karaoke proudly as we all sat around and he regaled us with Debby Harry and Queen. One of the best things his family shared every Monday night was Family Home Night. It was something the Church members practiced – nothing religious – just a night when the TV doesn’t get turned on and the family does something together. Sean’s family played board games; Scrabble, Uno, Monopoly – all the basics. And did we ever have fun! It was the best way to start the week, laughing, cheering, plodding to buy hotels and take your opponents down!
You don’t have to be Mormon to take their lead. Bored? Play. Restless? Play Uno. Craving a giggle? Play Pictionary. Want to have fun with kids? Try Cadoo. Want to exercise your brain? Give Rummikub a whirl. Maybe you’ll even try karaoke one night to, say, Bohemian Rhapsody. …. Sean…? Oh, Sean….!
