Well my lil boy Clancy will be 5 tomorrow - 15th October. I have another boy Marcus who is 7.
It is great having them with me on the prac green or out in the yard hitting/chipping balls.
What is great is they ask me to hit with them. I don't need to push em.
I don't tell them what to do. I let them do there own lil thing. As a parent, all I can do is make it fun, safe and teach the etiquette.
I wish someone did this with me when I played as a junior - focus purely on the short game. That is where the scoring is.
We chip and putt for points. I never take em out for long game. Every now I get a cart and drive around the course - them steering and me on the pedals.
Afterwards we'll go in the club house for coke n chips or a treat somewhere else.
So what do you with your kids. What games do you play and how do you make it fun and interesting for em?
