No Lights Night

No-lights night at home. Phones away, candles lit, and an evening of games and talk.

Pick a night, put both phones in a drawer, and turn off the TV and every light in the house. Light a few candles (or lanterns) and spend the evening together by candlelight: play a board game or cards, read to each other, or just talk. Make a simple snack before the lights go out. The one exception is the camera: take one photo of the two of you in the candlelight. Never leave candles burning unattended.

More about this mission

Every March, people around the world switch off their lights for Earth Hour, but you don't need an occasion. It's surprising how different home feels by candlelight: quieter, slower, and easier to talk.

Ideas for the evening: read a chapter out loud, play cards, tell each other stories from childhood, or plan a trip on paper. Use battery candles if you have pets or kids around, and never leave real candles burning unattended.
