Are your kids hitting you with the “I’m bored”? Here’s some suggestions, other then sticking them in front of a video screen.
- Write an actual letter to grandma or grandpa or some other relative that they haven’t seen in a while.
- Create a ‘when I grow up’ poster.
- Check the yard for 4-leaf clovers (watch out for the poison ivy!)
- A scavenger hunt in the house or the yard.
- Wash the car or their bikes/wagon etc.
- Organize their room and see if there’s any toys/games/clothes they could donate.
That’s a start. By the way school starts in about 5-weeks!

There’s been times when you say something and you get the old “I can’t believe you said that” response. I don’t understand that response. We all have opinions and thoughts about things in life. What makes us human is having thoughts and many times we’ll disagree about those thoughts or opinions. Not that long ago […]
