[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 31748, member: 1697"] Um......I dunno, why do you have to have planned and scheduled activities? I do not mean to sound weird, but.....well, I dunno, I just backed off the planned activity a few years ago, cuz I was burnt out and LOL- I was surprised recently when easy child screamed at me one day in a heated discussion that they HATED those planned times. She said it made her feel so pressured to "have fun" at my command. Upon discussing it with the other kids, they agreed. :-( Is it possible kt might have some ideas of her own? Maybe she would like to try making pizza with you, instead of ordering it in, even if you use a ready made crust? Sometimes my kids will ask me to tell them stories of when me and their aunts and uncles were growing up- LOL- kinda like tattling on their aunts and uncles, LOL.......... even tho my kids are now 18,just about 17 and 11, they think it great fun to pop in a cd of kids songs and we sing at the top of our lungs to Oh Susanna, Pollywollydoodle, Home on the Range, etc. sometimes they just like to do "nothing" [/QUOTE]
