Mommy Gig has a great idea to brainstorm ideas with your kiddos on these topics:
- Things I can do on my own, or prefer to do alone
- Things that I like doing with a friend
- Things that I can do to entertain a younger brother or sister
- Things I would like to do with my mom, dad, aunt, etc.
- Things that have to be done outside
- Things that have to be done inside
- Fun places Id like to go (that arent too far away and dont cost a lot of money)
BlogHer has a list of kid-friendly websites. Nearly every product marketed for children offers a site full of games. Here’s a list of some of the especially impressive ones.
