I second ‘alternating the primary parent.’ My husband and I do this too and it really helps to know when you have free time. Also, we try to arrange at least one meet-up with family, friends or neighbours so we have other adults to talk to. Then, plan a few excursions, even if it’s just to the library or dollar store. A walk or park time for fresh air. We also do a toy rotation so always do a toy change at the beginning of the weekend. For this long weekend, we bought ‘road tape’ off Amazon and plan to build a city of roads in our living room. I expect my boys to spend hours driving their cars all over it. Then… a few guilt-free episodes of Paw Patrol.
