One of my besties has five awesome kids. For my birthday gift to her this year, I offered a day of childcare so she could do whatever she wanted. She and her husband planned a few day trip to Chicago and I watched her kids for one of the days.
Her oldest was in school, then practice for (I think) volleyball. Mu boys joined me and we filled the day with games, playing basketball, jumping on the trampoline, and making play doh “poop” characters, compliments of my husband. 🙂
