I'd love some fresh ideas.
Trying to think of a nice way to celebrate my soon to be 13 year old's birthday.
basic perameters are;
- He has autism and does not want a party or any friends to be involved 'Just family' which means his parents and him only
- He is not sporty and does not enjoy trying new things that are sports related
- he likes ten pin bowling but we have resorted to that every year
- budget around £300
- He is afraid of the cinema
- He does like little trips away, but they have to feature alot of chill time in locations where there is wifi so he can game
- not keen on museums or art galleries
- has no idea of what he would like to do so says when I ask him 'I don't know'
- he possibly might have the tolerance to sit through half of a live show of some sort- we are used to leaving things at interval as he can't cope any more so that would be okay
- loves Zendaya; Ariana Grande; and the series Wednesday
- very limited tolerance of food so a fancy restaurant probably out...... although could within reason consider this if we preapre him very carefully in advance
If it were left to me I would take him on a weekend city break abroad but for various reasons we will be abroad twice this year (all family obligations so not really 'holidays' and I realise we are very lucky) and DH is already panicking about the costs of those trips on our budget.
I'd just love MN hive mind ideas really!
TIA!
