We just spent a few days at a lake house that included a couple of games for rainy days. This one emerged as everyone’s favorite.
Although it’s labeled “for kids,” it was fun for the adults too! The cards include clues with pictures so that non-readers can play. There are several levels of play, making the game accessible to younger kids while still challenging for older ones and grown-ups.
Charades for Kids is available on Amazon for under $10.

Would love some tips on combating the anger I feel taking over my life – most of it is just dealing with a really cranky and ungrateful 9yo son, a spirited and defiant 4yo daughter and a 2yo son who is as sweet as can be but just so, so needy and clingy. I feel touched-out all the time and the consistent loud noise of what I think is just normal life is so triggering. I’ve been chronically exhausted for nearly a decade and work in a job that is so demanding at times, and I definitely do not exercise as much as I’m supposed to but I’m trying.
I know the answer is to be more gentle with myself, fill my cup first, outsource/pay for help, but it just doesn’t seem like there is any room anywhere for time or money. We are taking a much-overdue adult-only trip next week so I hope that I can use that time to chill out and come back refreshed. But what else do I need to do when I come back? I really don’t like the mom I am becoming — my mother was a screamer and I am headed that way — and I want to do anything I can to really start to turn things around.
