Lights Out Game

Ever since our Fourth of July party, when the kids got to stay up late, they have been fascinated with flashlights and playing in the dark. The last few evenings we invented a new game, called "Lights Out".
We use our playroom fort, which is the baby fence with a blanket thrown over the top and something soft inside (usually the fish pillow).
Then we turn off the lights, shut the window shade, get in the fort, and turn on our flashlights. Eventually we pretend like we're sleeping.........then we pretend like it's morning and we jump up and dance around!Then we do it over and over and over. Fun!
The nice thing about this game for Mom is that sometimes she can just lay in the fort with the blanket over her, and the kids will keep on playing. Excellent!
