Labor Day PLAY for the whole family Apparently summer is over and it is time to go back to school. How/when/why did that happen?

With Labor Day coming up this weekend, we've got a change at a last hurrah with the whole family. Here are a few ideas for getting outside and soaking up those summer rays as a team.

1. Set up a scavenger hunt for your whole clan. Spend this last summer weekend having a big adventure with lots of clues and surprises.

2. Get crafty and build a target to blast your Nerf guns (or marshmallow poppers) at. Settle in for a weekend tournament with an awesome prize at the end.

3. With fall winds creeping in, it's the perfect time to fly a kite. Here's a DIY to make your own!

4. Find the joy in flowers. The activity options are endless, but they all start with gettin' outside and gathering some blooms together.

5. Play TAG. Seriously, it's that simple. Here are a few ideas for variations on the classic game.

Have a long, happy holiday weekend!
