We have 4 dc aged between 4 and 11 (soon to be 12). I am finding we spend very little time doing "sitting down" type activities. If we want to go out as a family it generally has to be something physical bike ride, walk etc. I just wondered what others did when they had a variety of age gaps?
As an example this is what we did today:
8.30 - 9 30 skate park (new in town and smaller ones wanted a go so went early before others got there. Bike/scootered down)
10 - 12 30 3 youngest helped load a trailer then played at friends whilst dh was helping friends dh. 11 yr old went back to skate park
12 30 - 14 00 family sit down lunch at ours with GP'S
14 00 - 15 00 dc went to gp's farm and helped with milking
15 30 - 17 30 went on a long walk in woods with friends
18 30 - 20 00 watched film with small 3. 11 yr old had cricket match.
On the plus side they end the day exhausted but I don't feel we ever sit still!
