Table Time Events are fast and fun activities that engage families with 11- to 18-year-olds during or after an already-existing event.

Details

These fast and fun Make Mealtime Family Time™ activities use a table event format that takes five or less minutes during or after an already-existing event. Table Time Events are a total family resource which means more than one generation can participate together. It’s not age-graded. This five-minute event works best with parents, grandparents and their 11- to 18-year-old children and grandchildren. It is during these years that the number of shared family mealtimes declines.

There are two components to the Table Time Event: (1) Practice a fun game or activity that families can do at home during a meal; and (2) Hand out copies of a Place Mat and Conversation Coasters that can be done at home or while out for a meal. The event takes place at a table or tables after a worship service, during the mealtime of your mid-week program, or other already-existing congregational or cross+generational event with parents, grandparents, teens and pre-teens.

Uses:
• A great cross+generational resource for parents, grandparents, and their 11- to 18-year-old children.
