You throw a big Ground Hog day celebration for the kid
Party time! This will help get your young ward settled! You hire a clown, and a live kazoo and toy instrument band, all of which are midgets, and buy the kid a live Groundhog to keep as a pet. This should be quite an event for him!
...but, it turns out to be a dud. None of the other kids show up. This really bums the boy out, and he spends a lot of the week off he took for Groundhog Day moping in his room. At least he loves his new pet, so that's something.
Equally unfortunate, the party (that no one came to) cost you so much money you have to skip eating supper so the boy and his pet can eat. This was supposed to net you money, but so far you've only lost it, and now you'll have to do without any third meal for another seven weeks to get back on budget.
