Lockdown ideas for one child/ instagrammers with onlies

I follow some instagrammers for ideas of fun things to do with ds but they all have multiple children

Today for example one of them suggested camping in the garden so I got the tent out but ds said it was no fun on his own

I can't play with him all the time as I have to work so I need Ideas for him to occupy himself

This whole lockdown thing has made me feel so guilty that he is not with other children and has no one to play with. I wish I could magic up a sibling

Hi no advice but I'm in the same situation and feel exactly the same as you! I feel so guilty when I'm not able to play due to wfh . But even if I wasn't working I find non stop entertaining hard so the guilt is overwhelming!

Thanks@waaahhh

It's nice to know I am not alone feeling like this. I know mums with lots of kids are probably having a hard time too for different reasons but I feel such pressure to be a playmate and a parent and work and get stuff done that needs doing
