Every Sunday around noon (central standard time), you’ll get an email with a link to the coming week’s adventure. You’ll also be notified what supplies your kids will need over the course of the week and receive a suggested family activity connected to the week’s theme. Each day, you’ll also get a quick reminder of what’s on the agenda and a link to that day’s activities. You can review everything and decide what you’d like your kids to do when—or just share the link with them and go back to your coffee.
