Activity ideas for 11 yr old

I’m looking for some ideas for my 11 yr old to do, after school & weekends. He gets bored especially after school, I work full time & it’s full on until 5.30 when i can log off. His Dad works 6 days a week & his sister is much older & doing her own thing. We aren’t a sporty family & due to an eye condition he isn’t keen on a lot of sport. He has done kick boxing in the past, basketball, chess club & does coding every other Saturday. He has a x box & Nintendo switch but I hate him being glued to it!

  • duo lingo
  • small electronics kit (if you trust him with a soldering iron) - my db enjoyed this and whilst a bit retro it’s fun
  • scouts?
  • Can he swim? Our local place outdoors place teaches SUP, kayaking and sailing. Depending on whether he needs special glasses/goggles, I guess that would make it tricky.
