Anyone having a hard time entertaining older kids?

Question

I'm so tired this week!! My hips and legs are sick of this weight and I'm just miserable and hot. Up until recently I've been doing ok bringing my 4 year old out to do fun stuff but this week I just can't and I feel really guilty 😩

Answer

Well I have a 7&4 year old boys and it's been so hot here in Norfolk VA that we have been stuck inside the house so I get them to do an hour of HW and then they get tv for an hour and then coloring and just playing inside or board games..today was low 80s so I sent them outside after lunch for two hours we just came inside it was nice and comfortable Outside but yeah I don't want to go far from home anyway since it's the last weeks of pregnancy..we are planning a trip to a beach this weekend an hour away and I'm scared to go that far lol

Answer

I feel guilty as well. I'm just so tired and it hurts to move around they play videogames all day. I was the type of mom that said only an hour a day, well that went out the window. Yesterday we actually made playdough and they played with it for a good 2 hours. But I don't do stuff like that ever.

Answer

Yep, I got some board games and legos so we can play in bed. He's understanding but I feel like shit.
