2 x active boys and 1 x very active golden retriever.
Method:
Throw boys and dog in back of car; drive to Rimutaka State Forest Park; disembark and head into the forest taking the 4 x kilometer loop track; start them off running; keep them entertained by setting a treasure hunt for them to find lollies along the way where they had to back-track their steps, climb trees and skid down a bank to the stream - all at a reasonably fast pace; give retriever a lovely swim in the stream; return to car with 2 quieter boys by this stage and head to the swimming pool; encourage them to climb onto the inflatable and play for over an hour in the water, the more active the better; bring them home, give them dinner and let them play basketball and tennis on the WII sport for half-an-hour.
Result:
2 x tired boys, both happy to go to bed and ZZZzzzzzzz.
Run boys, run ...
Those treasure hunt fairies left some great candy treats in the forest this time !
These 2 boys were a laugh-a-minute
Playing basketball on WII is hot work - the boys needed to strip down !
