Question

Answer 1

Kids love to color, you could get really huge pieces of paper and have them trace each other and then color themselves in with faces, clothes, etc.  You could also get those decorate your own plate kit or a plain white t-shirt you could have them decorate, they might like that.  Do you know how to make friendship bracelets?  You could teach them.  Watercolors are fun, especially if you put on really funky music and have them paint what they hear.  What kid doesn't love fingerpaints (again, huge paper would be great for that)?  Disney movies or pixar movies are good for after your activity.  Have fun!
