Fun for all ages! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-128266 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 11:55:10 +0000 mediagirl 128266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ms.SK: @regberadaisy: @Arden: @artbee: good call on the arcade type things. We do have something like that here. It has putt-putt, laser tag and an arcade. I think they could blow some serious time there.... Woohoo! Great idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-128190 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 10:51:53 +0000 Ms.SK 128190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Batting cages? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-128176 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 10:48:20 +0000 regberadaisy 128176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there a putt putt nearby? Go Kart racing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-128155 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 10:41:51 +0000 Arden 128155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I second the movie or arcade. I can't think of any 10 year old boy who wouldn't like that! There are a couple good G-rated movies out right now, I think. Maybe the Lorax? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-128065 Wed, 18 Apr 2012 10:12:01 +0000 heffalump 128065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about going to an arcade or something? Or a movie- I don't know what movies are out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-127501 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 22:14:34 +0000 cyneswith 127501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you know what sort of things he enjoys? He could bring a ball if he's into a particular sport. They could go to a movie. At that age, I just really liked hanging out with adults who treated me like a real person instead of a stupid little kid, and my brother was the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-with-a-10-year-old#post-127476 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 21:57:46 +0000 mediagirl 127476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My shower is this weekend. My sister-in-law is coming with her son, who is 10. He's a pretty cool, laid back kid but I don't think he would enjoy himself at the shower which is ladies only. My husband's friend James is going to be in town since his wife is coming to the shower. So, two guys and a 10 year old need something to do from 11am until 1pm. The local minor league baseball teams are either away or have late games. There's a walk for the SPCA downtown but I'm not sure my husband will be up to dealing with crowds. </p> <p>What would you do in this situation? I wish we had fishing poles, I could send them off to a local park. :-) </p>
