Mentor Q&A: What activities do mentors do with their 'little's'?
Volunteers thinking about joining our mentoring programme often wonder what kinds of
activities they might do with their ‘little’ once matched—do they need to be expensive or involve travelling far?
In our experience, children greatly value simple, everyday moments spent with their adult mentor, and these often cost little or nothing at all.
Activities can be shaped around each child’s individual interests and hobbies, which could mean a relaxed trip to the park, garden centre or bike ride, or an occasional outing like swimming, bowling, pizza, or visits to local attractions. 🎳 🍕🏊
BBBS will cover any reasonable expenses for outings, so volunteers can focus on building a positive, enjoyable connection with their 'little'. 👨👦
