Creating a plan for the holiday

CharliesDad

Hi everyone,

As we all know the summer hols have started, and my son has had some real adjustment issues to not going to school.

He's been very angry, agressive and always wanting food or to go out the garden. I think all this comes from his lack of structure over the holidays.

We've got things planned and he does have a couple of days in a playscheme, but I looking for a 'summer' holiday plan we can create for him that not only gives him things to do and allows my wife and daughter to have time to relax and enjoy themselves.

We can't give him the same structure and timeline that he has at school, does anyone have ideas for what we can do to create a less-structured holiday routine?

 

Thanks
