How does your 5 year old keep themselves entertained? Do they play well by themselves? JW if this is just my kid or if it's just the age. This girl CANNOT keep herself entertained at all. I'm dealing with a sick and constipated 3 year old who is crying every five minutes and doesnt want to play with her sister. AND my house is a disaster so trying to get that stuff done and my 5 year old who has every flipping toy known to man cannot seem to keep herself entertained and is up my ass every 2 minutes asking me to play with her. I try to spread my time evenly between the kids and house work so I ask her what she wants to do and her response is "well I thought you had ideas of stuff to play" why is it my job to keep you entertained all the time kid? lmao you want me to play with you but I have to come up with ideas to play? I know she has an imagination but sometimes I feel like she doesnt. Like... my house has thousands of toys and they just got a bunch of new shit for Christmas but she's bored and can't find anything to do. ughh does anyone else deal with this? Sorry just a bit of a rant, my anxiety is getting the best of me today :( is this typical for a 5 year old or do I just have a kid who can't keep herself entertained??
