How about taking the bikes?

Every week, I will try to post an idea that includes some family fun for the small budget. I think often times we come home after a long day at work and all we want to do is fall down onto the couch and do nothing.

Obviously, this is not ideal, but to me this happens all the time. It is tough sometimes to bring out that extra bit of energy to do something fun and exciting with the kids. I am amazed of those women who seem to be able to do it all. So, I decided to make an earnest effort to get our family to do some more meaningful things together.



Something that we have been enjoying every once in a while now is to take our bikes and go for a long ride along the canal.

If you have a bikes, this can be a wonderful idea to spend quality time with the family. Sometimes we ride along the canal, and other times we ride to a large playground where we enjoy the swings and slides.



Our son LOVES these trips. And for us it is a little bit of a work-out and for sure better than watching TV.
