Yep, you read that right.
For the last 4 years, I’ve shared a “Mom, I’m Bored List” list with you on WFMW and hundreds of blogs have linked up their tips too. There are literally thousands of ideas at your fingertips.
- WFMW 2011 Summer BOREDOM BUSTER List
- WFMW 2010 Summer BOREDOM BUSTER List
- WFMW 2009 Summer BOREDOM BUSTER List
- WFMW 2008 Summer BOREDOM BUSTER List
Our kids have no reason to ever be bored ever again.
But I’m not going to lie: our summer is going to look a lot like this: sleep, swim, library, a craft or two, repeat. I’m all about the lazy schedule. Oh, and about 17 days in a third world country.
Here are 441 fun ideas I found while looking around:
50 Inspiring Rainy Day Activities
80 Inexpensive Ideas for Summer Fun
50 Ways to Keep Kids Minds Active during Summer
100 Free Things to do this Summer
50 Projects to Make with Duct Tape
You’re free to link up any tips, but if you have old or new posts with boredom busters, please share!
My little one is not quite old enough to holler “I’m bored” yet (16 months) but I will tuck this list away for future reference. Or for when I’m bored.
This is my first time linking up! Thanks for hosting!

Thanks for hosting! I shared a recipe for green soup from foraged greens along with information on reducing the oxalic acid in the greens to improve mineral absorption.
I don’t think our boys ever said “i’m bored” more then 1 time. We would always have chores or something if they didn’t have anything to do. We lived out in the country so they spent lots of time hiking and looking for Indian artifacts and arrow heads. Then we had our own store which they worked at when they got old enough- our youngest was handing out coffee and entertaining customers when he was about 4! They are both hard workers today!
Thanks so much for hosting! Today I’m linking up a recipe for asparagus skillet with egg. I’ve discovered that putting an egg on skillet dishes works for me!
I heard the first (ever) “I’m bored” out of my oldest (age 5) about 2 weeks ago. I told him it is one of the worst words he could ever say
Thank you for this list!
Just wondering what WFMW stands for?

I learned when I was little to NEVER EVER say “Mom, I’m bored.” Bad choice. lol
I’ve linked up two this week:
1. Biblical “tips” on Lending Money (for some reason it only shows up as “Bible”
2. Tie-Dye in Photos – tips on making your tie-dye experience go well!

We have a chalk board that I made hanging on our dining room wall. It usually contains the memory verses for the week for my kids, but I thought it would be fun to have our “summer to-do list” on it. I hope you can see it with this link…
