9 Sunday Traditions That Make Us Wish We Were Kids Again

Sunday Paper

Our folks would always sit down with the Sunday paper at some point. Dad especially relished this. Eventually, the pages would be split up and we’d finally get the funnies. There was something so comforting about knowing that if we ever needed to find Dad, he’d be sitting there with the paper.

Sunday Matinee

Every once in a while, our folks might have taken us to a Sunday matinee. The choices were almost always something kid-friendly and wholesome and we loved this rare treat!

Sunday Night

Sunday night was all about Walt Disney Presents (years later it was called the Walt Disney Sunday Movie). We would get so excited about this last bit of fun before we had to get ready for bed and for school the next day.

Things sure have changed. There may be a few of these traditions that have remained in some families, but most of these routines have gone the way of the dodo bird, especially the Sunday newspaper. We miss seeing friends and family every Sunday for those long visits, too! Did your family have a particular Sunday tradition? Let us know in the comments.
