Not much excitement in the kids lives then. What about soccer games or taking them out to a ball game or an amusement park? How about the zoo or boating, fishing, etc. Do you go out and play ball with your son or tea parties with your D?
For example, before their bedtime I would always make it a point to play with them before bed. Whether it's a board game, video game or just being silly. That enriches the kids' lives more than school and adds to GAL.
I don't blame you for getting the impression that there's nothing going on in our kid's lives. Let me detail it further.
My son has soccer every Saturday. He has after-school programs/work-shops on Tuesdays and Fridays. During the summer, we took them frequently to amusement parks (we had season tickets), and went on a couple trips (including Myrtle Beach and Hershey Park). You may recall some of these in my previous posts/threads. Sailboat rides, zoo, aquarium, laser tag, just to name several.
I bought him a bike recently and we go out and I've been teaching him. We regularly play outside. We have a basketball hoop, we play catch, we have soccer nets. My kids get a lot of outdoor time.
