Choose a family activity

Add activities that fit today: the weather, the ages, and how long you actually have. Leave off anything you cannot leave early.

How will you use this list?

Name the constraint in the title: rain, a nap, or home by 4.

Try 4–8 options to keep voting quick. Maximum 16.

Keep personal information out of shared lists. Group options can’t be edited after creation because everyone needs to rank the same list.

The deadline uses your local time. Voting closes then, even if some people haven’t voted. Reaching the expected number doesn’t close it.

An activity the people in the room can finish

A useful starting point

“Saturday morning, home by noon, no tickets.” A playground plus a snack, a library visit, or three holes of disc golf are examples of the shape of a plan. Use places you can actually reach.

Name who is coming

A plan for a six-year-old and a plan for teenagers are different lists. Put the ages, or the limit, in the title so people rank the real afternoon.

Prefer plans you can leave

Playgrounds, walks, and games you already own survive a short attention span. A ticketed plan needs a time you will actually stay for.

Check the practical facts yourself

Hours, prices, and weather are not stored on this site. If a row depends on a place being open, someone should look it up before the vote, not after the winner is announced.

Read “ruled out” before you announce it

A child who cannot do the leading plan, or a parent who cannot, is a reason to take the next workable option. Do not ask someone to ignore a flag.
