I just wanted to recommend the Taskmaster board game for something to do with older children in lockdown that they didn't roll their eyes at.

Dare I say, even enjoyed!

There are different ridiculous tasks to complete and then you get points. We had make the smallest sandwich, dance to your ring tone, make something adorable from toilet paper etc.

One of mine has never watched Taskmaster and they still enjoyed themselves. It's actually better suited to a family doing it in their on home than it is doing it with people who don't live there as you need to race around getting stuff which might be strange in someone else's house,

Ooh I didn’t realise there was a board game! Bought DD the book for her birthday party a couple of years ago (12 yo then) and they all seemed to enjoy the tasks.

We loved it! DS (12) & DD (9) especially. We all love the programme too. We had the tiniest sandwich task too Grin

It was nice to do something that they were actually willing to do rather than being pushed into it. Grin

We played it at Christmas - I really liked the secret tasks. My ds2 had to colour his finger blue and ds1 had to bring something into the room bigger than his head and not let anyone else touch it. Very funny!

Oh we must get this.
Mine love the tv programme.
