Name Your Nights

In “The Family Dinner” book, we recommend naming your nights because it makes dinner more of an “event” to come to. Your kids will wake up excited for Taco Tuesday or Souper Sunday knowing what to expect when they come to the table (read a fan letter we received from a Mom who has put this into practice).

Our colleague Jennifer, (a busy mother of three school-aged children — twin boys who are 9 and a 6-year-old daughter) has also taken our advice to heart, and we love what she’s come up with in terms of naming her nights! Visit The Family Kitchen at Babble.com to read Jennifer’s great ideas for naming your nights:
