The next time you hear your kids say "I'm bored!" be ready with a fun activity to fill the time. Create your own "activity jar" for endless ideas when you or someone you love gets bored or can't think of something to do on any given day. Just reach into the jar and pull out an idea... it's just that easy! It also makes a great Valentine's Day gift or date-night idea resource.

Fun Tip:

• If you or a friend is getting married, give each of the wedding guests a slip of paper and ask them to write their idea for a good date night on one side and their name and a special message for the couple on the other. Then when the bride and groom are bored, they'll have endless ideas and can remember a loved one from their special day.
