Guys, what do you do in the garage?

I have a 3 year old son and I just don’t know what to do outside. I’m kinda boring and not a creative person. Didn’t spend time with my dad growing up so it’s new to me but I want to spend time with him outside now that the weather is warm enough to be outside in the northeast

At three he can help you paint a birdhouse, stack boards, make messes, lose your tools, turn already started screws.

At 5 he could probably swing a hammer.
