My 11 year old son plays with the mindees, brilliant with children, loves them.

Does he have a DS, ipod, sort of electrical he could bring what about a playstation ( games vetted),computer, going out park, garden center, library.

Origami websites keep mine entertained and quiet for hours, cooking (cleaning bowl with finger a must), playing footbal in the garden, if you have a wall outside what about a bat and bowl, I used to spend hours when I was little doing this.

I have 12 +13 mindees during the hols, they bring ps3 and laptops with them, at the moment 13 yr is on his tablet with a 3 yr old and
they are playing games, it's lovely to watch older ones interact with the lo's, also hanve a 6 + 7 yr playing on a kindle fire, no squabbles
so far. They also bring scooters and balls we do craft and make cakes and all the ages love it

I have an 8 year old in the holidays and I am struggling what to do as well. If the weather is nice I would take them to the park for a bit. They like the games consoles but I dont want then on it all day. Sometimes I let him play games on the laptop as well. You can take them museums, libraries (its free) but Ive already done that now.

I have a 9 yr old boy today, also 3 younger children. They have all enjoyed baking biscuits this morning. Junk modelling tommorrow . Parks and museum are always enjoyed by all of them.

We have been to becketts farm and saw the baby animals, on Friday we are going to umberslade children's farm as I have some 2 for 1 vouchers. Next week we are going to an indoor play centre and West Midlands safari park I have some money off vouchers as as you get a free return voucher we go back again either August or October half term.
