I wasn't sure where to put this so sorry if its in the wrong place.
Anyway.
I am finding it a real struggle to play and entertain my two sons (2 and 4yrs)
I feel it is really important that i play with them as at the moment they are getting reall bored and we are spending the weekedns yelling at each other and we all end up in tears and i figure its becuase they are bored.
I never had toys to play with as a child as my mum couldn't afford them and mum and dad were both working all the time so i didn't have them to play with me either.
My games all came out my imagination and now as an adult i don't know how to play with toys and games and i am finding it hard to show my ds's how to use there imagination to play.
They are unfortunatley ending up alot of the time being put in front of the television which although i havent anything anaint the tv i don't want them to rely on it to entertain themselves.
Like i say they are so bored they are crying and whinging all day and demanding food and drink all day and in the words of Charlotte Church - they are driving me to insanity. Hence me ending up in tears becuase i just can't hack the screaming.
I have tried to get own on the floor and join in thier games but i feel so awkward and out of places it's really hard.
When its wether permitting i take them to the park and ds1 is in nursery mon to fri and ds2 is in nursery monday and friday.
I need some helpfull, friendly advice please!
