What do your tween-ish DC do after school if not at an after school club?

[JambonetFromage]

All through primary my DC have been in after school clubs until 6pm every day so evenings have been a bit of a scramble of cramming in dinner and any activities like sports/scouts/swimming.

Eldest is now in Y7 and is home by 3:30pm every day and suddenly there's 2.5 hours a day he's never had and he's drifting round the house aimlessly.

I'm WFH so limited ability to arrange anything for him.

What are DC of that age typically doing with their time after school?

Homework and listen to music/watch tv

round here the secondary school kids aren’t home till 4.30pm earliest, it’s a few kms walk to school, or 6pm ish if they have after school clubs. Then homework, friends, sports/other clubs, phone, dinner.

If no school based club (dd did football, science and choir last year in Y8), then homework, music practice, cricket, teen gym session.

Go out with friends to park or on his bike, gaming. Have a snack. Lounge and watch TV.

My eldest is 14 and goes straight to the gym from school.

For whatever reason most of the school organised clubs at DC's secondary are at lunchtimes rather than after school (possibly related to school transport provision?) so though he's signed himself up to a few things it's not going to fill any afterschool time.

We've never had much time for home-based hobbies like music so I could encourage him to take up something.
