| My teen had a swim meet this morning and a private lesson this afternoon. Tomorrow the plan is to head into DC with friends. |
You are sick |

Sports tournament for one
House roaming with friends for the other |

Today:
Swim meet Hang out at pool all afternoon with friends Video games Tomorrow: Sleep until noon Spend a few hours texting with people who live less than 3 blocks away but for some reason they'd rather text than get together Escape room More video games Bigger outings that we may plan for later in the summer, if you are looking for something more noteworthy... Bike trip down part of the C&O canal, debating whether we'll make it a day trip or a longer bikepacking overnight Tubing on the Shenandoah Hike up White Oak Canyon to the swimming hole and natural rock waterslide (tweens always roll their eyes at the idea, until they get there ... then they can't get enough of it) |
| Teen 15, chat/watch movies on line with a friend. Work at the local rec center. |

They had a swim meet yesterday. My dd babysat in the evening. Today farmers market then heading to a friend’s house for a cookout.
My kids don’t have a ton of hangout friends…they have plenty of friends on swim team, but nobody is inviting them to do things outside of that and they are not inviting others either. I wish they had a group of friends like you, op! I would be thrilled if they were out and about and bored instead of in my house all the time

| My 13 yo seems burnt out on friends after a very social school year. I am trying not to pester her about hanging out with friends too much. Yesterday, we went to pool for several hours with younger sibling. Later today we’re visiting grandparents. At home, it’s reading, screens, crafts, etc. |

OP is looking for ideas for her kids' friend group this weekend (movies, laser tag, water park) not a granular list from humblebragging DMV parents.
After the international-based activities and whipping cream for the homemade tarts, Liesel and Marcos will pack for our upcoming trip, cook from our CSA, spend 2.5 hours on screens, and then hang out with their social groups. I will type it out by portion of the day so you can follow along. |
