I'm Bored Jar

My 12 year old son will often say, "I'm Bored!" and when I saw this pin, I got that wiggle in my belly, you know, the one that makes you want to rush out to the store and buy all the items you could possibly need for whatever project has got you going?

This project came out really well, I was pretty proud of this one!

A few of the 50 ideas


I waited months for him to say, "I'm Bored!" And when he finally did, I was soooo excited! I jumped up and grabbed the jar (which he had not laid eyes on yet) and presented it to him.
The first one he pulled out said: Design and draw a comic strip.
I picked things that I was pretty sure he would like to do but unfortunately, he thought it was dumb.
Yes, I was heartbroken.
*SIGH*
But I can save it for my 2 year old, maybe he will like it better!

For the record, he must have noticed how heartbroken I was because I got this a little while later:

Sweet, huh? He's a really great kid!
