Today's Activity: Volunteering is a great experience for everyone and fosters a “tribe team spirit” while giving back and helping the community. While the organizations
Cost: Free!
Age: Volunteering on-site is probably best for kids ages 7 and up; bag decoration at home is great for all ages!
Make it extra: Finish up your volunteer activity by visiting a new restaurant that no one has been to and make it a tribe event to try this new cuisine, this gets everyone out of their comfort zone and a common experience; the more outside of “your norm” the better! Think, Asian, Ethiopian, Indian, Pakistani, Seafood or something along those lines.
