Hi Truckee Mom,
I love that other people had kids who could sit still and follow rules. But don't feel bad if your son can't handle it.
The only think my DS could have done on Tara's list was the family walks. He's just way too kinesthetic. Even family meals were tough for us because DS would take a bite of food and then get up and walk while he chewed!! We would have to follow after him or call him back to the table if we actually wanted to converse. Most of our conversation happened while on family walks! He has to move while he's thinking! Maybe your son is the same way.
Bouncing balloons is a great game for more active kids.
