i'm a big fan of busy kids!i don't mean busy families - who have over-packed schedules and don't get to relax and enjoy one another. i mean kids who have fun things to do that don't involve the TV or video games.
i mean that when the words "i'm bored" occur - and face it, they will, regardless of how many toys or games a kid owns - the child is challenged to find something meaningful and creative to do.
this morning, i got to share with our awesome M&Ms group at church - moms & munchkins, or moms with kids around 5 years and younger. i compiled for them a list of my favorite ideas and brought in some fun samples to show and share. i hope they left feeling inspired!
wanted to make sure i shared it with those who couldn't make it so: here are my favorite ideas for keeping your kids busy this summer** and here is an excellent list of activities in our area - stuff going on nearly every day this summer - compiled by a friend of a friend.
**Note, this is a list of ideas i've compiled from around the web - very few (if any) are actually my original ideas!
