I too am at a loss when it comes to ideas for the summer. I only have 3 kids (Alex is 6, Drew & Autumn are 4 1/2) but they drive me crazy when we don't have things planned...this year will be tough because the ideas need to be cheap and close by (gas prices are getting to our budget) :) I can't wait to check back and hopefully get some good ideas...sorry I was no help there!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03281809623845094954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327397781579268028.post-41649066254039876442008-05-20T08:43:00.000-04:002008-05-20T08:43:00.000-04:00I feel the same way about keeping the kids busy an...I feel the same way about keeping the kids busy and on a schedule...even if it is a loose one. I told my kids they each have to think of a summer project to work on individually...for example, my daughter is going to fix up a little gardening shed we have into a cute playhouse with paint and curtains, and one of my sons is going to build a huge Lego creation. That way, besides all the other activities, they have something to go to when they (and I) need some alone time.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14912466557223829314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327397781579268028.post-72697592763687470832008-05-19T16:22:00.000-04:002008-05-19T16:22:00.000-04:00I am going to try letterboxing.

And there is an awesome one involving our alma mater! <BR/>You make your own stamp and journal. They give you clues and you try to find the box. This may sound cheesy, but I like doing things where the kids can be outdoors as much as possible since I feel like so much revolves around the tv and computer! Like I said there are several in our area and you can travel just about anywhere and find them. I don't know how this translates for 11, but it sounds like an adventure.georgiamomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04361208383322208574noreply@blogger.com
