Take 5 for Dr. Seus, Chili Dogs and Toothless Grins

Take 5 simple minutes today and dust the dining room. Grab your favorite dusting tools and just get it done. Even if you only use the room twice a year, it deserves a little love.

I mean, what really is stopping us from using the dining room for a casual every day meal anyway?

Or perhaps create of list of special days you can use it to make your children smile.

Here are a few:

1. The anniversary of your child’s first lost tooth.
2. Celebrate a random nonsense holiday like National Chili Dog Day.
3. Make a simple dinner, and before everyone scrambles from the table read a short play or a Dr. Seuss book.

Please share how you might utilize the dining room more often than major holidays and family events.
