The other day, I witnessed a little boy say that he was "bored" to his Mom. My ears perked up and I felt a little pang in my stomach. His Mom quickly replied, "Being bored is impossible because there is always something you can do." Right on sister!!! Of course I was inspired by the way she handled herself. Soon her little boy was pretending to fly through the playground.
So, for those days when your kids say that evil word, here are some fun ways to Take On The Creative and turn boredom into creation.
