Winning Strategies for Cheaper Family Fun: Monthly Bakeoff with Children Playing Against Each Other in Winnetkas November Attack League


Abstract

This research paper focuses on exploring the effectiveness of monthly bakeoffs as a winning strategy for cheaper family fun. The study was conducted in Winnetka's November Attack League, where children were invited to participate in a bakeoff competition, playing against each other. The aim of this research was to identify whether such bakeoff competitions could serve as a feasible and cost-effective way for families to engage in fun activities with their children. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, including surveys and interviews with participating families, to gather data on the impact of these events on family dynamics, financial costs, and overall enjoyment. The findings suggest that monthly bakeoffs were indeed an effective strategy for cheaper family fun, as they provided an opportunity for families to bond, create memories, and have fun without incurring substantial costs. Moreover, these events were accessible to families of all income levels, making them an inclusive and equitable strategy for promoting family fun. The paper concludes by discussing the implications of these findings for policymakers and family practitioners, stressing the importance of promoting low-cost, high-impact family activities as a means of enhancing family well-being and decreasing financial strain.
