What do you do on a typical Sunday with your children

[Shout]

I have 2 ds 9 and 4. I had to drag them out for lunch and played mini golf for an hour and this evening played a board game but apart from that the children have just been on the computer and watching TV.
Any other suggestions out there?

to you and your smugness

Scruffy

yes but i never ever get sex.

So there is a downside ya know..

what's sex?!!

i have no idea, apart from some foggy memory of bouncing around on a mattress whilst actually wanting to be asleep??

you are not assuming that us smug-marrieds have sex are you?

I'm kind of a lone parent on Sundays 'cos dp works 9am - 6pm every Sunday. I've got 2 ds's, 6 and 3 and this is what we do:

summer picnics at fab park in Wigan (haigh hall). It's cheap, brilliant for kite flying and has got 2 train rides in it - perfect. Went there on lots of Sundays through the summer.

There's national Trust places but they can be pricey if you stay for lunch.

Or when the weather's bobbins we go to various museums - most are free and ds's love them. Or indoor play centre every now and then!

anyone who has sex is smug, so there

Gawd sorry I killed it, carry on ladies....

For us,it's pjs until lunchtime and a nice cooked breakfast.

If the weathers fine, may go for a walk around the country park, or even just down the local rec for an hour.
Pack picnics, blackberry and apple picking, feed the ducks. Maybe even a trip up to London / museums / evening stroll along the Thames. Roll on the summer!

If it's raining, we hibernate. Dvds, pc, housework etc etc and cook a nice roast dinner. Homework, school uniforms...the usual bumpf.

Thanks all for your input. I am going to try out all the suggestions. We had a powercut for half an hour so they had to do with out TV so might use that excuse too in the future.

at mention of powercut-my DDs age 5 and 2 love playing powercuts. Just turn all the lights off, draw the curtains and hand one of them a torch. I just forgot to mention this to DH who burst in from work one night to find us all huddled up under a throw with candles lit.

I am allowed to see my son for a few hours on Sunday.

Ahhh powercuts!

When the lights go out (or mummy trips the switch on the fuse board) light a candle and play 'finger shadows' on the wall. Can make up a story and animals as you go along

Sometimes its a day out with Daddy, sometimes I go too (depends on my mood .

Sometimes we are out and about, never actually do much, saturdays are busy days for the kids, not so much sundays.

Past few sundays we have cleared out DD's room, laid a new lawn then dug over PIL new veg plot big fry for lunch too.

This sunday the kids have decided they want a winter picnic, so soup and sausages in the country park I think.

I am chilled about sundays we go with the flow, I normally work Saturdays.
