Halfway through spring break is about when a mom with vacationing kids starts to run out of entertainment ideas.

That's where Hawaii MomsLikeMe.com — and its nearly 6,600 registered members — can help.

In one discussion on what to do with the keiki on break, suggestions from the moms included:

• camping in your yard

• dedicating a day to rounding up things at home to donate to charity

• having the kids dress up and role-play the whole day in the job they'd like to have when they grow up.

One mom who goes by the screen name Beleza said she plans to just spend simple quality time with her child, letting her "hang loose since she is on break from school and all the (school) rules."
