The Three-Yes Adventure

The Three-Yes Adventure

Three little yeses. One very fun family day.

⏱ 1–3 hours ♡ $-$$ ⌂ Anywhere
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
• Three choices you're happy for your kids to make
• Whatever you need for your chosen adventure
GET STARTED ↓
What happens when you give the kids a little more say in the family plans?

Well, this week we're finding out.

But don't worry. We're not talking about an entire "Yes Day" where everyone gets to request whatever they want.

We're keeping it simple: Three yeses. Three opportunities for the kids to choose something fun. And one family adventure built around their choices.
♡
Make it yours. Skip something, change something, use what you have — the plan is here to make things easier.

STEP 1

Set Your Yes-Day Rules

Before you start, decide what you're comfortable saying yes to.

•
Maybe you have a budget.
•
Maybe you only have a couple of hours.
•
Maybe you need to stay close to home.

The idea isn't to say yes to everything. It's to create three little opportunities for your kids to make choices within boundaries you're happy with.

💬 WHAT TO SAY
“Today we're having a little Yes Adventure! You get three special yeses, and we're going to have some fun together.”

STEP 2

YES ONE: Where Are We Going?

First up, let the kids help choose where your adventure begins.

You could give them two or three options.

For example:

•
The playground
•
The beach
•
A bike park
•
A favourite walking track
•
The local swimming pool
•
A park with a big field for games
•
Or somewhere else that works for your family.

If you've got multiple children, you could let them vote or take turns choosing.

💬 WHAT TO SAY
“Your first yes is where we're going. Which adventure are we choosing?”
YES ONE: Where Are We Going?

YES TWO: What Are We Doing?

Now let the kids choose something fun to do while you're there. Maybe it's:

•
Playing hide-and-seek
•
Having a running race
•
Playing a ball game
•
Building a sandcastle
•
Exploring a new trail
•
Playing on the swings
•
Having a family challenge

The only rule?...The grown-ups have to join in wherever they can.

💬 WHAT TO SAY
“Your second yes is what we're doing. What should we all play together?”
YES TWO: What Are We Doing?

YES THREE: What's Our Treat?

And finally, the kids get to choose a little treat.

You could give them options like:

•
Ice cream
•
A bakery treat
•
A picnic snack
•
Hot chocolate
•
A favourite homemade snack
•
Dessert when you get home

Whatever fits your family.

💬 WHAT TO SAY
“Okay, we've got one yes left. What should our little treat be?”
