Ideas welcome. My two are watching too much television at the mo.

This morning I spent an hour with each sorting their rooms. Then we played a board game. They're on their 2nd (and last of today I hope) hour of screen time.
They're going out to play this afternoonand I don't care if it's still raining!

No good answer, but I love the fact that the thread currently right below this is simply called 'screaming'.

Mine are 5 & 8 and I find getting them out somewhere every dry day no matter what makes days at home ok. I know thats not really an answer, but it seems to work!

Lego. Splashing in puddles. Playing games- bored games, hide and seek. Stuff we usually do to be honest, but I've always hated soft play!

Cooking and baking were always my go to when mine were younger

I've spent the morning ringing around swimming pools. None are open for kids. SO FRUSTRATING.
