Title says it all really. Just looking for your top tips for surviving the next 7 weeks!
My boys are lovely individually but together seem to struggle to do things without it becoming a squabble. I intervene and end up entertaining them every second which doesn't do any of us any good.
I love doing things with them and love not having the manic school run but are there any Supermums out there who can offer any advice? I really struggle to find things they can both enjoy and I end up getting quite stressy with them which isn't fair and I hate snapping at them when they are really only acting age appropriately!
We're only on day 2 of the holidays. We had a lazy day yesterday, spent the day in the garden and when DS2 went for a nap I played board games with DS1. Problem is that board games/ lego/ hex bugs etc have to be played with when DS2 isn't around because he is into everything and obviously can't understand the concept of the game.
Any cheap/ free activities? Any ideas for what we can do around the house that don't involve the TV or ipad?!
