"I'm bored" Fixes

I wish to be a child again. I used to love the summer, no school, afternoon naps, ice cream and all. It sure is great to be kids. My daughter when she wants something to do, I bring out the arts and crafts and work on a project with her. Of course, it only works with younger kids, once they reached 8 yrs old, it is hard. In this case, I invite more kids over and let them play out side in the sprinkler or something. I don't get to hear " I am bored" too much, and I wish I could have that opportunity. You see, I work full time away from home and so My kids are always in some kind of school program they don't have the chance to tell me that. Good luck and enjoy your kids while they are still young. Time flies when you are having fun with the kids. Happy weeekend

hi dear this is what i also heard from my three year old constantlyand i had to leave all work and play with him..i dont let him watch much of TV bcoz it can effect the eyesight also..so we need to take out time and give personal attention..

I sue to hear the summer whine to, I did what my mom did. Well if you are bored, I have all sorts of things for you to do. This usually ment chores. Now if you wnat to see kids find someting to do real quick, just tell them you have a whole list of chores that need to get done, and if they are bored, well you will be happy to give them a few to do. That was usually all it took to get my kids outside and playing.

my son is all grown up for a long time so no longer hear I am bored. he was however good in finding things to keep himself busy.he had a bike and was on and biking all over the town. we did not have a computer back then so was] only the t.v. but my son had a record player and records and listened to a lot of music every summer too.

I rarely heard that sound. My kids are grown now, but they did have Nintendo and games for the computer. I was the neighborhood "Mom". I was the one where all the kids would come to have fun. We had a "playhouse" (clubhouse for the guys) and a small pool at the time (no room for a big one) and it was enough to let them have fun. I'd let them have water battles with the hose and always provided lots to drink and snacks for everybody. (If I had been smarter, I would have charged their parents to "babysit"!) They also loved to ride their bikes. These days, if the neighborhood kids come over, it's best to have a small sign posted somewhere outside where it is easy to see which says something like "Anyone entering this property agrees that, in case of accident, they or their parents will not sue the property owner." It's a sue me/sue you world and it's better to be safe than sorry. My kids had plenty of friends over all the time. It wasn't hard to get them to play outside. In bad weather, all the kids would come inside to play, but I always set down the rules and regulations of our house so it didnt' get torn apart! LOL
