I loved reading in a magazine recently about the LAZY mom, because i totally related! It gave all kinds of good ideas to get your kids out of your hair! (although isn't it weird how if you arent' with them you miss them but when you are with them you wish they would go away?) Anyway, this forum is dedicated to the lazy mom and any thoughts you might have!

What is it all about?

i let my kids make potions in the kitchen when i am really tired and i just lay on ground and watch the mess happen!
controlled chaos is good...a big sandbox in the yard with a bucket or two of water...let them get completely filthy for a while and then hose them down.
play dates for older kids is a great escape for mom...read a book and listen for trouble...but otherwise, they entertain themselves.
water always works wonders...put them in the bathtub for 30 minutes (or longer if they don't mind the tepid water)...you can read or talk on the phone while watching them slip around or play their wonderful imaginary games in worlds you just don't care to enter at that moment...
having one of those moments right - sent them all outside to play...told them no friends - that they must play nicely together and if that doesn't work i'll start assigning yardwork. that oughta do it.
i am now all about making them do all of the chores i don't want to do like vacuum.. they actually like doing it!
