[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 boys - 3.5 and 5 and DH and I WOH FT. Our normal weekdays are packed with work, PT preschool for my kids, then they are taken care of by my MIL. And our weekends generally revolve around keeping them occupied and we do a lot of fun activities (bounce houses, trampoline parks, outside stuff, etc). Now that we’re all home we’re all starting to go a little stir crazy and our routines are way off. My kids are now waking up early on purpose to watch tv, getting bad attitudes, and expecting us to keep them entertained all.the.time. We try to stick to a schedule but everything we do takes maybe half the time I plan for. My 5YO especially is having a hard time missing his “normal” - he’s very social and extroverted so seeing people outside and not being able to see his friends is very hard for him. He’s started to act out (and I’m sure the extra screen time isn’t helping). It’s incredibly frustrating for everyone.

My in-laws are going to take them to their house for a few days so DH and I get a break and I’d like to deep dive into what I can do to fix this when they get back. Any book recommendations or quick reads I can come up with a plan?[/quote]
