DS is a lovely boy but literally spends all his free time in his bed on the computer or doing Rubik's cubes. His bedroom is tiny, hence literally being in bed.
He plays football with a local team but other than that has no non-bedroom interests at all. No longer reads books, sadly (he's quite intellectually capable but haven't been able to find anything to light his fire recently).
I'd love to get him to try some new things, to make friends, broaden his horizons, introduce new interests. I genuinely don't care WHAT it is, I'd just like him to find some new interests.
So far I've got:
Take him to theatre
Woodland/outdoorsy stuff (he's done geocaching)
Skateboarding lessons?
Grqphic novels?
Games coding club?
... anyone else have any ideas?
He's a very maths-y boy and gets lots of extras from the school on that front
He loves Randall Munroe books (but has them all)
