“I’m bored…”

The phrase every OSHC educator hears at least 47 times a day

You know the ones…

-Too old for the “little kid” activities

-Don’t want to join the program

-Only want devices

But also have ZERO ideas of their own

So what happens?

Frustration, wandering, disengagement, behaviour.

Not anymore.

I’ve created a simple resource for OSHC educators:

Boredom Busters (Ages 8–11)- for those children who need a little help

• 40 simple, no-prep, pick-from-a-jar ideas designed to:

• Re-engage older children

• Build independence & agency

• Reduce “I’m bored” moments

• Encourage creativity, leadership & social connection

• Support MTOP outcomes through choice-based play

Just print, cut, pop in a jar… and let the magic happen.
