Or, if your kids are into reading, they may want to read with you in the evening. It might be that they would like you to read them a book, or perhaps they want you all to read separately. Whatever they choose, the peaceful environment is good.
A Day Out When You Can
If you can find time for a day out on your day off, then you should.
