10 Ready Made Retreats

1. Dads and daughters—best in an outdoor setting where dads often feel most comfortable; think campfires, building things, and scavenger hunts.
2. Moms and daughters—you can do this almost anywhere, spas are fun, but do-it-yourself spas where you do each other’s nails and hair are just as good.
3. Dads and sons—same principles as dads and daughters, but maybe add fishing or sports activities.
4. Cousins—time for games from childhood, simple meals together, photo sessions, and maybe scrapbooking.
5. Sisters—dinner out, and talk, talk, talk.
6. High school buddies—be sure to bring old annuals or class newspapers, plus cameras for fresh photos.
7. Sunday school class—you can choose between in-depth Bible study or just fellowship outside the church walls.
8. Your immediate family—do things you never have time for at home. Play Monopoly, read to each other, take long walks together.
9. Your significant other—rest, romance, rest, romance. Quiet places are best, but almost any location will work, from a local hotel to a quaint B&B. 
10. Just you—eat simply or maybe even fast. Read, write, rest, or use the time to jumpstart a new routine like a diet or exercise plan.
