I have 3 boys 9 year old twins and a 6 year old. i only have them every other weekend. what is the best way to

Question

keep them busy?

Answer 1

paintball, parks, football, baseball, pools, movies..lots of things..If you only have them everyother weekend I would take them out when you can...I know things can be costly with 3 boys so maybe alternate..one weekend take them to something free...like public pool or to the park to play ball..and then the next weekend take them somewhere fun that cost..like arcade or to the movies..Try to have something every weekend planned so they are excited about comming..you dont want your place to be boring for them..you dont have much time at all with them. Plus having young boys watch tv alot and play video games is linked to over weight teens ... :) Good luck

Answer 2

Find something you ALL can do together.  Take them to a park, toss a ball around, go to a zoo, an amusement park or a water park.  Take them to batting cages, mineature golfing.  Go horseback riding, take in a movie you all would enjoy.  Instead of worrying about "keeping them busy", and work on doing things WITH them.

Answer 3

pick out an activity that you all can do together like going to a park or a museum or an aquarium... That will keep both you and them pretty busy

Answer 4

they love parks . anything  you can play  . get a race track to build .  buy a football and just go throw it around. keep them active.

Answer 5

Let them play Ring toss they will love it or you can bring them to the zoo all children's love animals

Answer 6

Let them watch a moive or play out side. Or you can sit and spend time with them. Play a game and make sure they know ur the boss. Keep them out of trouble and set good examples for them and you'll be fine

Answer 7

get them outdoors. it can be something simple, fly a kite (they are cheap) go to the park or even for a walk. Go to the nearest body of water and let them pick out their own special skipping rocks, teach them the way you learned to skip rocks. i have learned with three boys myself that they remember the small things most of all that we have all done together. keep it simple yet fun. pack pb&j sandwiches and make a whole day of it.

Answer 8

Every other weekend would be great for trips to the zoo, park, museum, movies, bowling, arcades, miniature golf, etc.  At home I would say that being outside is best in good weather because kids and outside are just like a hand in a glove.  Kids that age love to go fishing.  If you let them play outside alot and get their energy spent then entertaining them inside will be much easier.

Answer 9

Get them a video_game.

Answer 10

ok some ways is video games,take them out to the yard and play with a soccer ball or something, take them for a swim, get them bikes to ride, there r alot of things u could do just see what they r into. take them to a fun place like ice skating or just buy them some movies they like and have a movie night. Hope this helped a little!

Answer 11

We just started bowling. The kids love it. You could also grab rollerblades and go to the park or the neighborhood. Or have them each write 5 things they like/or would like to do, and put the choices in a hat and pick 1 each day. You could do this with their favorite food too. Good memory makers!
