Couch potato

The girls will be in this position on weekends when left undisturbed....

Watch TV eat lollipop. And check phone

Watch TV eat lollipop

That's why I still send them for art class even though they complain it's not enjoyable and they're not learning anything.  At least they do something other than being couch potatoes!  We would also go out for lunch, sometimes a short trip to a small mall, swimming if the weather permits. 

Weekend schedule - TV allowed after lunch, iPads evenings onwards
Sat morning: Art class
Rest of Sat: Mostly couch potato-ing
Sun: Mostly couch potato-ing

  1. Today's young generation is so different from what we used to be. We will be out playing with friends all day long. No such thing as couch potato-ing. Are they interested in sport activities, outdoor or indoor? I assume most kids do not enjoy outdoor activities because of the heat and sweating.

    1. Well they don't have friends living nearby since we would be home during weekends. They aren't the sporty type as far as I can tell - no more gymrama/swimming since before MCO.

  2. Oh, good that they are not attending tuition classes, or activities like music lessons, swimming lessons, self defence lessons and etc that makes them not having time to relax. Your weekend schedule for them includes lots of couch potato-ing which means relax time!

    1. Hmm I think they attend too few things though! 1 or 2 of these 'enrichment classes' would be better.
