How to use it
- Check the forecast and remove anything the weather will ruin. On a wet weekend, switch to the rainy day wheel.
- Spin once for Saturday and once for Sunday. Turn on Remove the winner after each spin so you get two different plans.
- Give each person one veto per weekend. After that, the wheel wins.
Ways to spin a better weekend
- Morning and afternoon: spin twice for one day. A hike in the morning and a board game afternoon feels like a full day without much planning.
- Budget split: keep this wheel for cheap plans and save a second one called “Treat weekend” in My wheels for the once-a-month splurge.
- Weight the overdue: if “Clear out a closet” has been on your list since spring, write it as “Clear out a closet *3” and let fate push you.
- Keep a log: the Results tab shows every result with the time, which makes a nice record of a month of weekends.
Make it local
The generic list works anywhere, but it gets much better with real places. Swap “Visit a new park” for the three parks you keep meaning to try, add the museum with free entry on Sundays, the lake an hour away, the friend who always says “we should hang out”. A personal list of 15 is better than a generic list of 40.
Questions and answers
What if nobody likes the result?
Then you have learned something: spin again, and notice which results make people relieved. One honest re-spin is fine. Three is a sign the list needs editing.
Is there a version for kids?
Yes, the family activity wheel is built for all ages, with shorter activities that work around naps and short attention spans.
