Nothing sounds more awful AWESOME than spending your day doing the opposite of what you are "supposed" to do. As a kid, I used to love when we'd have backward day - but had no idea that January 25th is nationally recognized as Opposite Day.
Why not have a little fun with your kiddos this week and declare an Opposite Day at home? Here are 7 ways to have fun with your family on Opposite Day:
- Play a game of reverse charades - instead of acting out a word or phrase, one person must describe it to the group.
- Have a backwards dinner - start with dessert, then soup, the main course and end with an appetizer.
- Go for a backwards walk - start at your destination and make your way back home.
- Have a backwards movie night - watch the ending of movies first, then the middle, and lastly the beginning.
- Make opposite-day cards - write messages that are the opposite of what you mean and exchange them with friends.
- Wear your clothes inside out - pick out a unique outfit and switch it up!
- Play a game of opposites - create categories and give teams opposite words to guess.
We've also created this fun printable you can use for a few other ideas:
Have a HORRIBLE day ;-)
