[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are just bumming around at home. Reading/crafting/chores/family games/Netflix tonight while eating dinner.[/quote] This. The constant need to have a planned (fun!) activity doesn’t set kids up well at all. Raising kids who constantly need to be entertained because they were conditioned that way is detrimental to them. It creates an issue in school as well because kids expect every single lesson to entertain them. Kids don’t know how to keep themselves occupied because there’s always something planned for them. It’s ok to stay home and do “nothing”. Especially on the hottest day of the year. Who wants to be outside doing anything today, anyway?[/quote] +1. [/quote] +1. My child has asthma. We are staying home. No need to expose her to this humidity and heat---or we will end up in the ER as our activity.[/quote]
