Now that my kids are older, they have separate interests and activities. So, when one is away from home for a few days (usually a scout campout or a sleepover), I take the other one out for a nite of movies and pizza. It sounds simple, but, they count on that time with mom because the other one is out having fun with his/her activity, and the one stuck at home gets to have a good time, too!
You would be surprised at how the 'at home' one looks forward to it.
I know this was not the question, some at home activities include playing cards (my son has recently discovered poker), video games, riding bikes, stuff they like to do, and they think it is cool that mom can do them, too!
Be blessed,
Beckie
