Games for the Holiday Break

This is my last day of work for the next 11 days. While I love time off I am a little scared of spending the next 11 days ALONE WITH MY KIDS!!!!!!!! It is very frightening and I'm not sure that we will all survive but I have created a list of few games to help get me through the next week and a half. Here is the list of Suzie's Games for the Holiday Break:

Get Mommy the Jug of Wine

Who can sleep the longest?

Find the TV remote

Scruby scrub scrub the tub

Being really really quiet is fun

Lets pretend to be mommy and watch all her tv shows (without whining about wanting to watch cartoons)

Shake, Shake, Shake, mommies martinis

Hide and seek for Mommy (who has really left the apartment and is sleeping in the hallway)

The first one to shriek or whine is a rotten egg

and my favorite

Lets all go to Grandmas house!

Do you mind if I steal your game but change it to "Get Mommy a Beer."

Am I a bad mom because my kids actually know how to open one? Happy Kidful Holidays!

Debbie said...

Those are great games! I particularly enjoy the get Mommy the Wine game around my house.

Amy Plumb said...

Those sound like some great games! Don't forget about the cowboy and indian game, good excuse to tie them up for a while -LOL. You keep me laughing.

I hope you and your family have a wonderful Holiday together.

In my case it would be get mommy a diet pepsi....ooooh, and some chocolate too!

We have played Who Can Be Quiet The Longest, Who Can Clean Their Bathroom The Fastest, Who Can Get Mommy The Most M&Ms and my alltime favorite Who Can Go To Sleep First.

Actually, my kids are fine (they're older now) but it's the dogs which are extremely obnoxious, lol! (BTW, I'm not kidding....hehehe. I have a potty training puppy.)

These games are so funny. My mom actually had us play "The Quiet Game" and we thought it was a real game. I guess you do what you have to do. I hope you enjoy the time off and don't go too kooky. Take care and Happy Hanukkah.

Eleven days alone with your kids? That does sound scary. That reminds me, I forgot to ask my sister how long she's home with her kids!

I hope you can find a way to enjoy it! I'll think of you tonight when I uncork my favorite wine! The first toast is for you!

I've been home with my kids since Friday afternoon, and I'd really like to play those games with them! But, I think that would only take us a day, so we may need some more. I should enjoy them while I can, though. They leave to go with their dad the day after Christmas, and I won't see them for nine days.

I've been playing many of these games with my in laws and so far my FIL is winning the who can sleep the longest and MIL is winning the who can cause me to drink the most wine!

Merry Christmas!

Mine is "Go play with your aunties since we don't see them that much."

OH MY GOD. Good luck with all of THAT. I particularly like "shake shake shake mommy's martini". That's a very special game.

Madge said...
