My oldest is 9 so still in the little kid age, but one of my friends who has an 11year old has been talking about this a lot with me. She is having the hardest time for things for her oldest ( she has 11, 9, 5 and twin who are 2). Around here it seems to be partly a big kids don't want to really do things if there are little ones around. They want big kid only time, which is hard to make happen with siblings. One of the things she has had success with was board games, because you can differentiate ages some by what games are being played where, so the big kids get big kid time.
