Kids activity boxes

Sarah5790, 6 August, 2014 at 23:42 Posted on Planning 0 3

I know there have been a few posts on here about this and I was just wondering what people thought of items I've bought so far. I have 3 children coming during the day 2 boys aged 3 and 5 and one girl aged 7.

So far I have:

Wedding colouring/puzzle activity book

Colouring pencils

Bubbles (bottle is shape of a wedding cake)

Sweets

Toy cars (for the boys)

Pack of loom bands for the girl (loom band colours are our wedding colours lilac and white)

Light up yo-yo (thought this would be good for evening)

Do you think this is enough or should I add more or change any items. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks xx

    That sounds like quite a bit! We've just got sticker books and colouring books for the 40 children coming to ours!

    We have children of a similar age (but more) and we have done similar to you. We have

    Colouring/activity book and crayons

    Page of stickers (bought a boy sticker book and a girl one for about £1 each and put a page from each into each box)

    Bubbles

    Sweets

    Raisins

    Princess tiaras and sparkly bracelets for girls

    Toy dinosaurs, pirate puzzles (with the little metal ball inside) for boys

    I don't know what your boxes are like but with mine I bought some crepe paper and shredded it and put it underneath and on top of all the bits and pieces. Pink for girls and blue for boys and this finished it off nicely Smiley smile

    May have to steal your idea and put some loom bands in for my slightly older kids Smiley smile

    I'm liking a lot of your ideas Becky! Iv got 18 kids to keep entertained, ranging from babies to 11yrs, so may have to steal a couple of yours to go in my activity packs!
