Candlelight Night

wonderful ideas for reconnecting w/family time.I too have candles however my son gave me a few of those camping lanterns,these run on batteries which are safer for me,should the need arise to use them I feel safer (being handicapped)walking around the house.
Thanks for the tips.My grand daughter loves to hear about the"Olden Days"umm,that being the 40's&50's...lol

I always enjoyed the nights when the lights were out because of an ice storm when I was a child in NY state. I now live in So.Cal and us candles on my table and lower the dimmer light as low as my husband allows. I like the candlelight.

We homeschool. My girls are reading the Little House series, and we have been doing the same once a week. Without the electric, we play games such as checkers, read, knit, sew or do things that Laura or Mary would have done. Its fun, saves money, and they learn from it.

Sounds like a great thing to do to save electricity and have some fun while doing it. Thanks for sharing with us!
