I need some serious suggestions on how to keep my step-son occupied. He is 9 and doesn't like anything other than video games, computer and his camera. He is reluctant to try anything new. He appeased us by playing a board game tonight, but made it clear he was "bored".
He doesn't like sports, he is socially inept and is very very very hyper.

Here is what we have tried with him:
Ride his scooter
Make a gingerbread halloween house
board games
play the wii together (exercise and games at the same time)
go for walks.
I know there have to be more things out there....I just can't figure out what.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
