plsander, you're spot on. we needs lots of inside stuff to do too. it's a tricky age. my 7 year old would stay outside all day every day BUT:

-kids get cold and dehydrated quickly and need forced water and warm-ups
-my son is in the minority in this group of video, tv and junk food junkies

We've planned lots of songs and stories, and I'm working now on crafts and games.
