We did this several years ago and hands down the most fun experience ever! We drove fro LV to Utah, exploring the Grand Canyon, and Bryson National Park. Could not recommend it enough.

I prefer no sleepovers. I also think when you have multiple kids you can get away with not having them. Everyone who seems to host them only has 2 kids. Perks of a house with a ton a siblings.. it’s always a sleepover.

I hate having play dates.. it’s a lot with 3 kids and that’s my excuse. We have incredible neighbors who are roughly the same age and have mini playdates throughout the week.. nothing formal, just running in the front yards and going from house to house.

An experience! A mahjong lesson with friends, cooking class, spa day, tickets to a show ( ballet, etc)
