My teens seem happy to spend most of their time online gaming or connecting with their friends, but I’d really like us to spend more time together as a family. What kind of activities work well for families with teenagers?

Our teens are really in that space where they want to be treated like young adults rather than kids. We find that activities like playing cards or playing 8 ball or darts is more appealing to them than other kinds of activities - like watching movies or going to a park. We usually have a 'Friday Night Fun Night' each week and this is when we have a lot of fun with these kinds of things. My husband and I will share a nice bottle of win, we will put some great music on and then chill out in our 'man cave' area that has a pool table, dart board and table tennis. These nights are so much fun and the teens definitely get off their screens and participate.
I really hope they look back on these times one day and remember them with great fondness because they are treasured moments for me :)

We don't have teenagers yet, but I can see us doing a lot of the things we do now when our kids as they get older. If you live in the right climate, skiing with your kids can be so fun. I started to learn with my kids and it's one of our favorite winter activities. Some other things would be biking or hiking as a family. Camping is another great option. We haven't done it yet, but have always wanted to try geocaching.
Geocaching is an interactive hiking activity where you use a GPS on your phone to find different "caches" in various parts of the world. It looks really fun!
Anything that gets the kids outside and out of the house I think would intrigue them a little more. Even if it's an afternoon or bowling or at the movies, mixing is up is always important.
