BBC Breakfast helps us out......

Being bored 'fires children's imaginations'
fun with a sprinkler

It's the familiar summer holidays cry: "Mummy, I'm bored."

Research suggests the best answer might be: "Good."

A survey of 293 parents in the UK suggests that a majority - 70% - feel it is important for school holiday time to be filled with planned activities, and 45% worry that they do not do enough.

But research commissioned by the Lego Learning Institute suggests that it is good for children to be "bored" - because they have to start using their own imaginations.
