I've got the exact same issue. I'd love to do more coding on private projects, but it's always bits and pieces. I can never commit sufficiently to actually finish them.

Having kids doesn't help, although recently I've been thinking if maybe I should do a coding project with my son. A game, probably.

Building a game with my dad when I was ~9-10 is a fond memory of mine, and how I got an interest in coding. I was really into my N64 but wanted to make my own game for it around the hit British TV show "Robot Wars". Of course we didn't actually make an N64 game or even anything close to resembling what my childhood imagination had cooked up in my mind, but I learnt most of the basics of functional coding and had lots of fun with my dad, and was really proud of the insanely simple games we made.
