Kids in this epidemic

My two youngest boys are spending 50% of their waking hours doing school work, by their own choice. My youngest was doing math work out of book this morning (Saturday!) WTH! The rest of the day building RC stuff or building or working on something. No video games by their own choice. It's hard me to believe how much different they are from their older brothers. The wife and I have been spat free, mainly because I know who is buttering my bread!

Luckily day care is still open so I can work but the feds shut down one of my businesses forcefully so i was spending more time with my son. Aside from being stressed out about money I'm enjoying every minute extra I get with him. It's 50% playing Paw Patrol, 25% gardening, and 25% cooking together. He's almost 4.

I have a 3 and 1/2 year old and 2 year old. It has been tough as they are used to being at preschool and having a structured schedule. We have tried to give them some of that at home. My wife is a preschool teacher (at the school they were going to), so she does some activities with them like they would do at school (circle time being one of them).

However, they get restless and fight sometimes. We do go outside and play. We take walks on a nearby trail. There are a ton of people out walking in my neighborhood. I hope California doesnt ban this activity as that would screw many people up.

We do have a pool but the water is too cold. Weather has been cold for us (low 60's, high 50's). I realize that is warm for many other areas though ha.

My kids dont really watch phones or tablets very often. They do watch TV but they get bored fairly quickly.

We have started bed time earlier mainly because we arent getting home as late from work like my wife and I were before.

It helps with our sanity though ha.

IDK, you could give these a try:

If anyone is looking for a good card game to play I recommend Skip-Bo. My gf and I got it and we played it just about every night for over a month before we got somewhat bored of it.

My 9 and 4 year old girls are on the verge of a good fight...I'm pulling for the youngest...he sister has been asking for it for a week now
