TUESDAY, DECEMBER 18 Red Bluff 3A A family night of stargazing If things are so hectic in your household during the holidays that you can't remember the last time you took time out for some family fun, you need to remind yourself what kids really want for Christmas: quality time with family. Get family fun on the calendar, and once it's there, you'll find yourself scheduling around it, not crossing it out. If you don't have a calendar, make one that goes at least through New Years. Post it in a visible place so all family members can see it, even your little ones. Make it colorful and exciting. Now, make some plans. It doesn't have to cost a lot of money to create wonderful times together. One idea that appeals to all ages is stargazing, discovering the stories of the sky. Lest you believe that stargazing is just an activity for spring or summer, it's not. You'll want to do some homework for this event. But you'll be amazed what the winter sky has to offer. Take a trip to the library or look on the Internet for sites like DomeOfTheSky.com or KidsAstronomy.com, where you will find lots of city lights. If you have access to a stories and sky facts.
