To suggest that others should do an activity with you, you could use the nosotros commands.

SABER AND CONOCER As you have probably already learned, ser and estar are used in several different situations as “to be.” Saber and conocer are used in the same way for “to know.” Saber is used when you talk about facts that someone may know or not know. When saber is followed by an infinitive, it indicates that someone knows how to do something. Conocer is used when you want to discuss whether or not someone is familiar with people, places, or things. When you use conocer to refer to people, be sure to add the personal a after the conjugated form of conocer.

The negative tú command also has an exception. The negative tú command is formed by adding an –s to the end of Ud. and add “no” before the verb. When adding an object/reflexive pronouns it must go before the verb instead of going after the verb.
