family nights

Weekly home gatherings

Family nights are designated evenings when household members gather for shared activities—games, movies, meals, or outings.

The term implies intentional togetherness in contrast to the scattered schedules of modern life: We do pizza and board games for family night.

Often promoted by schools, churches, or parenting advice as a way to strengthen bonds.
