The only challe...I think you are so right, Leeann! The only challenge is that as an only child, he doesn't like to do a lot by himself and he doesn't have a sibling to do it with. He and I bike some and we walk to school, but there aren't any kids close by. Thanks for sharing!<br />HynesMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10918950206079506047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353025631459641438.post-31158617938994694782012-09-15T10:06:12.082-05:002012-09-15T10:06:12.082-05:00Love this.
We must be in your area of the country...Love this.<br /><br />We must be in your area of the country because we call them snowball too.<br /><br />I have found that giving my boys (13, 10- the 10 w/ adhd) some free range movement has been enormously helpful in getting them outside and active. They bike all around the area. They bike to the park, to the baseball fields, to a couple of food joints in the area. They bike to the library and to Mathnasium twice a week for math tutoring. Being able to do this gives them a huge boost. And it also keeps them active, which helps with ALL boys.<br /><br />We also do no tv on the weekdays, ending Friday after school once instruments have been played. I can overrule this at my discretion so on occasion we will all watch a tv show together. We do allow it on the weekends and in the summer although I may begin limiting summer a bit, depending.Leeannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529722995554495470noreply@blogger.com
