I have 5 yo twins, big and girl. Every morning my son goes to school half an hour earlier than my daughter and comes home a half hour later, too.

It’s always very hard for me to find time to give him some one-on-one time, because his sister is always around.

Since the clock was changed my son comes home on Friday about 45 minutes before my daughter. I want to use the opportunity to give him this time weekly to do something special. The problem is that it’s Friday, and I really don’t want to be messing up the house with crafts or filing up my sink with more dishes.

I need some ideas of clean, fun activities I can do together with him.

One-on-one should be child led, and doesn't have to be anything fancy.

What does he want to do with you?

Can he help you make something for shabbos? I have easy cake or dip recipes that you can make in a disposable pan.

Can he help you do something special for Shabbos? Can you chill and braid the challah together or bake a parsha treat?

To me, it is less about the activity and more about the undivided attention.

Does he like reading books together? Playing games?

My son that age loves to help me cook for shabbos.
