Activity packs for Children at the wedding meal....

All the children are a lot yonger at mine (5 being the oldest) so its all about the crayons, colouring books, sticker book and stickers for our age range.

Where do you get these stickers from as I may be persuaded to spend some more money (kids are so expensive!) just so I can have a play to be honest as htey sound an amazing invention.

Ha! The stickers are awesome! I bought them for my daughter last Christmas and ended up getting 3 packs of them so I'm just using the spare ones! You can get them off QVC or Amazon. They're roughly £5 per pack but you get a few in them. The app to view them is free to download on apple or android. They are so cute! You can make them walk around, the teddy bear one for example does little cartwheels and they all have different sounds and movements! I'm not expecting that they will play with them for hours but hoping because they are a bit different it should keep them amused for a while! My plan is to give each child a different one, stuck to a gift tag with their name on so they an swap with each other to look at them all but get to keep them after! I'm going to ask their parents in advance to download the app so its ready for them!

I photographed a wedding recently where most child guests were boys. They were given small blow-up dinosaurs! It was a great idea, they loved them.

I found these awesome activity books in lidl a few weeks back which I'm going to be using to keep kids busy! There're really big with loads of different quizzes/mazes/stickers/etc, the kind of stuff you'd get at a restaurant kiddy menus but there's loads of them. They were £2 each and I don't think I'll need to add much to them to keep the kids busy (they also have a carry handle cut in so they can take them home). We just need some pencils and then my OH is RAF so we've got some of those polystyrene planes for them.

Then we're doing charity favours (and sweetie favours) for the adults, so the kiddies will get them too, apart from their charity is our local lobster charity. They get a little toy lobster (and also a lobster named after them at the sanctuary with a photo!).

I'm not sure about the older boys liking colouring, but the younger one should still be of an age where they'd enjoy it! The older ones might prefer some dot to dots? They require a bit more thinking and they do Star Wars/Comic Book ones now.

I'm buying some packs for mine from Amazon they have personalised bags that they go in to. But I'm making mine boys/girls types do they will be different. But mine enjoy colouring.

thos stickers sound amazing! Forget the children is be more interested in them than the speeches haha!

Have you considered disposable cameras?

The kids will have fun taking pictures, you can set them takes to photograph certain things or just get a child's perspective of your wedding.

I I did this for my nephews for their parents wedding (my brother and his wife) and the photos were fantastic!!
