It's challenging to find ways to keep them busy, especially when they don't always want to do the same thing. Then the grumbling begins. So it helps to let them each pick something...and then you have to follow through. Most important...or you'll never hear the end of it.<br />But my weird little secret is that I DON'T try to schedule or over-plan everything. Keep em busy, absolutely, but I often let them find thier own way. The next thing you discover is 2 hours have passed while they have been building cities in the sandbox, climing the backyard trees, and trying to catch a butterfly. Museums, playgrounds, zoos, and amusement parks all are great, and we do try some to that. But I often find at the end of the day, a tired, but happy child is one that was let loose in the fields of their own imagination.<br /><br />Secrets? Of course I got one. If all hell breaks loose one day.....turn the hose on them.
