Kids Minus XBox

Posted by Kimberly Michalski Posted on: 08/13/08

Kids Minus XBox

Occasionally I execute my privileges as Executive Boss (mom) and force my children to do wicked things. Like shut down the XBox and go outdoors. I know it's summer break, but we can't go to FL every weekend and XBox is not the only alternative to vacationing.

This summer I've found the kids creating some ingenius toys from various garage content. They've discovered awesome ways to entertain themselves. It's amazing how kids will shine given the opportunity. AND assuming you've sailed past the test where they complain about being "bored". We solved that dilemma long ago. Once the kids learned our solutions to cure boredom, they pretty much stopped getting bored.

Stay tuned for more photos of what kids came up with on their own.
