Since its inception in 1999, the Week of the Family Committee has designated the Monday of the week as a time reserved for families to stay at home and do something specifically with their family. It is hoped that reserving a set time each week for family time will become habit-forming.
Family Activity Day is for everyone. You are encouraged to “adopt” friends and neighbors who would enjoy an evening of family activities.
Ideas for things to do as a family:
Play board or card games
Get out the family photo album
Make up a play or story
Make dinner—everyone contributes a dish
Make a family calendar
Read a book aloud (book lists are available at the library)
Write letters to grandparents or other family members
Draw or paint a picture
Learn how to use a compass
Pull out your old records, tapes, CDs, then listen to and discuss music
Who doesn't want an excuse for an evening off of planning, cooking, and cleaning up after dinner? These San Carlos establishments will have discounts and specials just for Week of the Family. No registration required.
Support these local restaurants. Ask for the "Week of the Family Discount".

Players will be grouped by age groups and we will crown age group winners as well as an eventual city-wide winner! Come join the fun!
Official Week of the Family Roshambo Rules:
You and your opponent make a fist with one hand and tap it three times on the fist of the other hand (or another hard surface).
You and your opponent should both count the strokes out loud.
On the third tap you and your opponent should both make or “throw” your characterizations of either ROCK, PAPER, or SCISSORS very distinctly, at the exact same time, so there is absolutely no mistake what you threw.
Winner is awarded 1 point for the winning throw. (Rock dulls/beats scissors, paper covers/beats rock, scissors cuts/beats paper.)
If you and your opponent “throw” the same character, no points are awarded--try again.
A player must win two out of three throws to win a game and two games to win the match.
Note: This is at the same location and time as the Family Game Night.
Target Audience: Students from all SCSD schools, grades K-8th
