We have done the occasional park trip, the odd castle, a fortnight camping. And a lot of lovely, lovely staying at home. Lie-ins. Cuddles in bed. Then booting the DCs out into the garden to play.
They seem happy (they are 5 and 7) - they have an orchard to play in, a den built, more den building equipment, a pop-up tent and oodles of toys.
Occasional boredom by them is met by a snack/addition of new props.
Should I be doing something more educational? (I am reading with the 5 year old every night but that is it.) Should I be giving them a bit more input? Playing games? Suggesting crafty stuff? Planning stately homes or petting zoos? Or should I just relish the fact they play together so well and just let them get on with it?
Am I being unreasonable to just be enjoying them enjoying themselves without me?
