Holiday Entertaining: How to Involve Teenagers


Winter, a lingering season, is a time to gather golden moments, embark upon a sentimental journey, and enjoy every idle hour. ~John Boswell

It's November and Thanksgiving is creeping up on those of us in the U.S., with Christmas just around the corner.  As I mulled over topics I haven't covered on OFL during previous holiday seasons I started thinking of teenagers, and their tendency to gravitate towards each other and their electronic devices instead of interacting with family members.  I now have three teenagers who are 13, 19 and 20, so I have had a lot of experience with forcing, or rather, encouraging their involvement over the years:)  I wrote an article with tips that I think will help involve them during family gatherings from now until the new year.  You'll find it here:
