Take your time to decide things

That’s the best part about not having anything to do the whole day, you don’t have to rush things. Sometimes the best moments are all about snuggling together before deciding what to do with the day. Try having a pentathlon right in your living room, if you’re up for something competitive. Just follow the link.

Board games for the family

Kids are often very good at video games. So your only chance at winning might be to go analogue with a board game. Team up, pick a game and battle it out. And do it all by staying right where you are with a coffee table that comes with different built-in games.

A new start is just a flip away

Done with the first round? Starting another game is really simple. Just flip the tabletop to reveal a new board. A friendly game is important, so win or lose, don’t forget to shake hands like a sport!

A deck of playing cards is always a good idea. And there’s always a card game to suit your fancy or occasion. Try your hand at one to many, slow solitaire or a flush of full attention when all else fails.
