Where is a fun place you'd take your child when they won't tell you where they want to go?

My 12 year old niece says she wants to do things with me. It's the summer, so perfect timing. We went to the circus recently as she did not know what they are about. She wanted to go skating once, and we did. I asked her the other day where she wants to go, what she wants to do for the summer " I don't know". I asked more than once, but I get " I don't know" as a response.

In the past, I had free tickets to go to the zoo. I offered to take her. "it stinks at the zoo"

Again, this is my niece, not my child, so I may just let her sit at home all summer long. Doesn't want to do anything.
Kids are sad these days. Want to stay inside and play computer games and watch youtube videos.

When I was a kid, you couldn't PAY me to sit in a house all day.

Local museums, planetarium.

Laser tag.

Take her to a convention or concert.

Local sports - teach her about the basics.
Take her to the movies or the mall, this is what I do with my niece. She seem to enjoy it, but be prepared to spend if you take her to the mall.

They're picky creatures.lol

@kate21 ooh. I've thought about a certain museum. Kids nowadays aren't easily amused. I still am😄

Take her to sky zone if there is one near you. Take her to an amusement park or water park. Take her swimming. You can even just offer to have a water gun or water balloon fight with her. Cook things together or do some kind of craft together

@rokrchik1211 Think she's been plenty of times. Our schedules never aligned to go there. Amusement parks are expensive. I thought about water balloons and stuff since our backyard is huge

@iamnikki water guns and sprinklers are good too. You could also get a tarp and creat a slip n slide
