It is true that preteens and teens tend to get cabin fever and bored to. So I began to brainstorm with my sons some of the things that they like to do. This would also be a good idea to do with your teen to do get some other ideas. This is what we came up with, it?s a good idea to keep a list so when you do get I?m bored from them to pick up the paper and let them pick a something to do.

Sit and make up stories this helps build creativity, but also handwriting. This is also a good way for them to express new ideas and feelings. Sometimes their stories are based on personal experiences, and problems that they are facing. So this can actually begin to help them problem solve themselves various things they are facing.
On the same train of thought is creating plays, this helps in another avenue of creativity and perhaps feed the acting bug that is in a lot of us and our children. A dance contest is also something that can be added to this.
