Hi all
I CM a 10yr old boy after school 2 days a week & all day during holidays 2 days a week. He Say's he's bored quite a lot....
I set games up, play board games with him (as a group too) Have drawing comps, go out to the park, I have a Nintendo wii (which i allow them 1 hour during school hols, He would be on there all day if i let him though & he would be happy to sit & watch the TV all day too which i think he does at home)
I have a trampoline in my garden, tennis games & tents to name a few things....
XXX Say's he's bored almost as soon as one activity finishes or even half way through & doesn't want to play any more....
I ask him what he'd like to do & i get shrugged shoulders..:(
Would you guys just leave him to it, i do feel like I'm waisting my time even trying. He is a sweet boy, with a heart of gold & very polite...but an absolute nightmare to entertain.
