I love playing glow in the dark games with my kids. I think it’s because I loved staying out late when I was growing up. With the time change in the Spring, our evenings were lit just enough to play an extra game of hide and seek or sardines. In fact, one of my favorite games to play was a version of hide and seek where we all wore black. We’d hide in front yards along a cul-de-sac that my friends lived on and one by one the “seeker” would have to find everyone. It never got old. Except maybe for the neighbors…
That’s why I’m thrilled to be working with a Happily Ever Mom sponsor, Horizon Organics, who inspired us to remember our favorite childhood games. Here are my favorite “classic” games from my childhood that have a fun, glowing twist…because my kids love to play games that glow!
