I'll start us off.

MOST ENJOY: drawing/art projects, reading, playing keepaway on the trampoline, school pickups, telling stories, cooking

MIXED FEELINGS: bedtime (it's soooo sweet but it takes soooo long), watching children's performances

LEAST ENJOY: playing pretend

Nice to notice the list of activities I enjoy is so long!

Most enjoy: reading, cooking/baking, taking walks (hiking with slightly older kids), LEGOs, some kinds of art/craft projects, bedtime/naptime, singing (particularly in the dark around a fire while people play guitar), school/camp/daycare pickups, board games/card games

Mixed: “playing outside”, playing pretend

Least enjoy: being responsible for kids around water (I spent my career in the summer camp world, and I am so hyperaware and hyper vigilant that I cannot turn off my risk management brain.)

I really enjoy going for walks, going to the playground, reading, playing guessing games (like “I’m thinking of an animal that starts with the letter P”) and baking. Oh, and dance parties!

I deeply dislike any kind of arts and crafts, and making forts (shudder).
