Third Millennium Activities for the Family
Hey! Here's an idea! Why not make this first year of
the new millennium (and the first year of the 21st Century) a time
of:
What a deal huh? We've got some themes to get your creative
juices flowing feel free to expand on these ideas and combine others
to make your own unique celebrations.
Celebrating the
Family:
A family reunion. Take a picture and put it in your time
capsule! Don't have a time capsule? Here's
how to build one!
Family Nights- Take an evening (or a day) out of your week and
enjoy time together doing activities as a family. These
activities should be fun and not tedious, something that can get
wrapped up in 2-3 hours.
Here are some more resources
for you to consider.
Celebrating
the 3rd Millennium:
Well, we've celebrated the end of the 2nd Millennium (twice
now), so why not continue to celebrate the 3rd millennium.
Here's some ideas:
- Do something High-tech.
- Have a party with sci-fi movies from the 1950s (or earlier)
and snicker at how 'the future' was really supposed to
look. Some of it is absolutely hilarious. Here are
some classics:
- Just Imagine (1930)
- Things to Come (1936)
- Destination Moon (1950)
Celebrating
a Century of Progress:
- Visit museums that illustrate the progress of
the world over the last century. Progress in things like
transportation, communications, exploration and the like.
Discuss our progress with you family and children and show
them how far we've come in the last 100 years. It's
easy, inexpensive, fun and stimulating. It may even be
close to home! Here's
a listing of good places to start listing museums by
country. This is also some good discussion around the
dinner table!
