Friday Night Fun

 

I sat down this evening to make a list of fun, safe, legal, parent-approved ideas for Friday nights. I googled, I pinterested, and I asked around.
This is a brief list I've come up with over the last couple hours. (Note: the pictures with them do not belong to me. I found them while I was googling.)


Bowling! 
If there's a teen out there that doesn't appreciate a good night of bowling, I haven't met them. Bowling is great for a very wide age-range. It's a great way to hang out if you want to be able to talk. You can be as competitive or chill as you want and no one will judge. It's just fun, after all. 



Bonfire!
Again, what teen doesn't like an evening with a bonfire? It's a fun, mostly safe way to get to know a new group or hang out with an old one. It can be as relaxed or as crazy as you want it to be. For a twist on this already-epic evening, introduce glow-sticks into the party about half-way through. Encourage a glow-party--which could involve anything from hide-and-seek in the dark to an all-out glow-stick war!

 RAOK Night!
 Sometime's it's fun to do something for others! RAOK stands for Random Act of Kindness (also known as RAK). Get a group of close friends together and go out for pizza, plan the evening while you're there, and then go for it! Here's a list to get you started: Clean up a parking-lot. All those shopping carts that drive you crazy when people leave them around? Take them to a cart-holder-thing. Leave some change (in a ziplock bag) at a vending machine somewhere at a park.Tape an encouraging note in a bathroom stall. This is a great idea for places like parks where people have covered the bathrooms in obscene graffiti. It doesn't take too much to think of more ideas! This is an awesome thing to do!



 I'll be adding to this list soon! But this is enough to get through the weekend at least, anyway! Enjoy! :)
