[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m cracking up at all these people saying you should drive 4 hours RT to philly or Richmond just to entertain your kids for a day or two. People, it’s not that hard![/quote]

I was thinking the same thing. My kids are going to be at home most of the time. We’ll probably do a few outings around here  but definitely not driving that far to fill every day with something new to do. [/quote]

I’m the one who suggested the day trips. I stay home and do local outings everyday. If my kids are off for 2 weeks, we probably won’t just do local outings.

We get 2 weeks off. We are going to nyc to visit family for a few days, spend a week at home, probably do a day trip to liberty to ski and then we are going to the Caribbean for 5 days.

During the week at home, we will probably do play dates with friends and local outings including a day trip to Baltimore.[/quote]

Do you ever just...spend a whole day at your house? Playing with toys, imaginary play, board games, baking, etc.? I admit I totally judge people who cannot just chill at home. It’s like some sort of compulsion or mental illness.[/quote]

I spend time at home all day with my 2yo often. Older kids get home from school and we do homework, eat and hang out. It is rare that every member of our family has no plans outside the house on a weekend. My kids play sports, do scouts, do academic competitions and get invited to a lot of play dates and birthday parties. DH and I also often get invited to social outings with and without our family.[/quote]

I’m talking about a no school/no work day. Whole family just hangs out. Could you do it?[/quote]

Of course we hang out at home. We have over a week of nothing planned over xmas break.

Do you work? I don’t do everyday is a no school/no work day for me and my youngest child.[/quote]
