Five Things to Do On Family Day

International Day of Families just passed by on the 15th of May, and since many of us (guilty as charged) didn't know about this special occasion, we may want to do something to celebrate now. You can thank us for shedding knowledge about this auspicious day later, first take a look at 5 fun things you can do with your family to celebrate Family Day! 

Cook together: Cooking is a therapeutic form of art, which can be both relaxing and exciting. You can plan out your favourite meals together, assign one dish to each person and cook for the whole family at the same time. Sure, the kitchen may get a little messy- but it's the kind of mess that's worth it. 

Play a game: I remember my family loving games of 'antakshari' every once in a while. Being a family of four also came in handy when we would want to play a good game of call-bridge or carrom. And every once in a while, my whole sitting room would turn into a make-shift badminton court and the doubles would be on! 

Walk down memory lane: Remember those old, fat photo albums that are collecting dust in the corner of some bookshelf, in some corner of your house? Why don't you take those out and go for a walk down memory lane? There really is nothing better than remember the best days of your lives, with the best people in your lives. 

Watch a good movie: There are many wonderful family movies out there for every age group to enjoy. Whether it's Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Taare Zameen Par or Gupigayen Baghabayen, Family Day is the perfect time to curl up under the covers together and watch your favourite blockbusters! 

Date Night: Yes. You can, in fact, take your family out on a date. And no, it does not have to be 'romantic'. Take your family out to a nice, quite restaurant, have a good filling meal together over some gossip and adda, give them an experience that they will enjoy and show them how much they really mean to you.  

So what are you waiting for? Go and spend the best of times with those who really matter- your family.
