We've got into a terrible rountine.
3 days a wk DS has to go to an after school club, but the 2 days a week me and his nearly 4 yr old sisiter go to collect him - we just come home and he watches TV. He goes straight to it and veges.
I've tried after school things like gym which I've posted about elsewhere cos I've no idea whether he's too young for after school things or not. We don't have playdates.
He cannot, and does not, ever play alone.....if I ever try to play with them, like a board game with all of us, it's just hellish, with rowing and fighting galore. But surely, 3 hours of TV can't be good for him. I need to break it up and do something else but it's so hard.
If we try to do HW then his sister goes nuts. Even when it has been successful, this is only a 15-20 min activity!
I'd love to hear what others do? Especially from those with a small age gap like me...
Thanks guys...
