[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD and her friends typically entertain themselves. They do nails and hair. They watch tv. They make up plays. They do crafts - right now they are making jewelry and bookmarks. They make music lys. They listen to music. They shop online and then beg us moms to buy them new clothes. They bake. That's all I can think of. [/quote]

Right now we don't have a tv and tend to not let kids use games/computers. We are wondering if we are outliers and that is part of why bored.

We will keep crafts handy thought they had outgrown that.

Movie and ice skating and such are great but right now we are kind of limited to at home play dates when we host. [/quote]

We were like this too, and it was a little awkward for our son, because his friends seem used to doing just video games etc and he is not so good at talking with people. But for our daughter, it was never really an issue, because they love playing pretend games (she has a play laptop, phones, etc, as well as other things.) she still likes this, through 10. If they are bored, we usually have some craft kit that she got for a b-day present that they could work on.  Of course, for both our son and daughter, they can also go play outside (on the front yard)[/quote]
