Stuck in Atlanta airport for the next 9 hours with 3 kids and a tired wife.

Pitch me your best ideas.

If the kids are young enough, I always play β€œwhat’s in my hand”. Just make shit up for fun. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Try to survive.

Sending good vibes Jeff!

Games:

Airport Scavenger Hunt - think up items and chase them down.

How many steps are in the airport? (This is where you and kiddos just walk and walk and walk to count steps.

Watch the planes arrive/depart.

You got this!

Ooh, scavenger hunt... hadn't thought of that. 🀝

Search chill spot to sleep

Go buy her coffee/tea and watch the kids for a bit so she can chill, wander and have solo time.

Is there an airport playground? Cards? Uno is always handy 🀞

If all else fails, fast food πŸ˜…

Unfortunately, I don't think there is a playground (would love someone to correct me there). Cards is a good call. Might go see if I can find some in a shop.

Best of luck. You got this. πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

Go slam a breakfast Bloody Mary. Order a Mimosa for your wife. Go tell your wife there's one waiting for her at the bar. Play eye spy with my little eye with the kids. They will entertain themselves. πŸ«‚

Get the wife a place to rest and it will be fine. Except your youngest get tired too.

True! As my granddad used to tell me... If momma ain't happy, ain't no one happy.
