who is not a big fan of playing on climbing structures? DS has never been a big fan of swing sets or climbing structures. He absolutely hates the swings and will start to whine if I put him in one. He will go on the slide but only for several times. There's an indoor playspace at a local mall with a bunch of the plastic Step 2/Little Tikes climbing structure that I take him to ocassionally. However, he will only play there for about half an hour before insisting that we leave. DS had his physical therapist session at the playspace today and he only lasted a little over half an hour there. (our sessions are usually 1 hour). He kept running to the door and wanting to leave so I could do nothing else but cut the session short.
However, if I take him to the library or bookstore, I practically have to drag him by the arms to leave the place. He could probably spend all day there if I let him.
So anyone elses DC prefer the library/bookstore to the playground/indoor playspace? I always see kids having so much fun at the playground and playspace and can't understand why DS wants to leave. And it's not that DS doesn't like to run around. He's very active and runs around the house all day and will happily run around the bookstore too. Do I just have a bookworm?
