The boys had won tickets from our public library for our family to attend an Omaha Storm Chasers' game (our minor league baseball team). The tickets were good for a Sunday or a Monday. We decided to attend on Monday and make it part of Family Home Evening!
Opening Prayer: Dad
Song: "Taking a Turn is Fun to Do" adapted from "Fun to Do"
On the car ride to the stadium, we talked about how when we take turns, everybody gets a chance to do something. We talked about lots of things that we can take turns doing and that we were going to practice that tonight.
We watched how the teams and the individual players took turns batting and running the bases.
We waited our turn in line to buy our snack and then took turnings taking a bit of the Dippin' Dots or sips of our drink.
The have a really fun family area at the stadium with a carousel, playhouse, and inflatables. We (mostly Tim) practiced waiting for his turn to go on the rides.
The boys had a wonderful time. We didn't actually manage a closing prayer, because they were super tired and fell asleep in the car before we thought of it.
