When they get bored

When your kids get bored, here's a list of 150 things to do.

2. Or fry up some marbles and make jewelry!

10. Bring dog treats to the park and meet 25 new dogs.

23. Or assemble an old puzzle and paint your own picture onto the surface. Or cut up magazines and glue a collage onto it. Then separate the pieces (you may need to cut them apart) and see if you can put your puzzle back together again.

33. Try not to think about purple gorillas.

49. Whip up some homemade sidewalk chalk.

73. Dye your hair with Kool-Aid (assure your parents it's not permanent).

97. Write a letter to your favorite famous person (find some addresses here). Let us know in the comments if you get a reply!

137. Make your own 3D glasses.

150. Print out this list and separate the ideas with scissors. Put them all into a jar and any time you're bored, just pick one!

That's cool. Mine never get bored though. One suggestion: if you're bored, you can always tidy up your room.....

That's why they never admit to being bored.
