Answer 1

Buy the game"operation"always a big hit in the house.Or you could play "twister",thats alot of fun too.

We also set up a tent in the living room sometimes and act like we are camping outside.We play radio,heat marshmallows over the stove,tell stories,get our blankets and pillows from the bedroom and hang out.the kids love it!

"Old Maid "playing cards is a good one.

Have a tea party and make them get dressed up for it and act like they are someone else.Different names,different places where they want to be from,

Hide and Seek is always popular/give a prize(treat)to whoever wins and doesn't get found till last.

Have a dance contest

Take them to the mall/get them a hot dog or ice cream

Fingerpainting/arts and crafts

Play beauty salon/hair,make up,paint nails/toes

Take goofy pictures of them

Bake cookies/brownies/cake/muffins/cupcakes

paint ceramics

make beaded necklaces/bracelets

okay,that's it for me,hope you find one you like.Use your imagination!Good luck with the kiddies

Answer 3

1.hiking?

2.go to a park?

3.go shopping (probably their fave)

4.fishing?

5.take out for icecream?

Answer 4

Give them piggie back rides all over the house.

DOWNSTAIRS-UPSTAIRS and all over the place

Answer 5

Answer 6

Try alot of imagination things, like stuck on an island or spy's. The 3 year is old you say is girly but she is still young and will enjoy near anything you do. The 9 year old will be a bigger pain to satisfy when she's bored. Try adeventrous things. I play with my 5 year old cousin lots. I play mostly what he wants... One time we were pokemon running from tiger-men. Lots of fun (I'm 14 with lots of exprience)

Answer 7

hmm...

Well, theres lots of things! Are you for some reason only indoors?

A trip to the park

swimming

nature-walks

outdoors things are great summer activities!

picnic (or indoor picnic!)

or play resturant (like w/ real food, u take their orders and they "pay" u with fake money or artwork or something)

play board games

plan a day of bowling

make your own pizza

watch a movie

make crafts from Michaels

do a puppet show

make a stuffed animal

go to the mall

For the 3 y.o. you could give her a make-over while the 9 y.o. does another activity.

You could play soccer or volley ball, play sports, etc.

You could even make up your own game if you'd like (be creative!!)

feed ducks at a pond

use chalk on the driveway

play hopscotch

play 4-sqaure...

blow bubbles

water-gun tag

water balloon toss

egg toss (very messy, beware)

finger paint

paint

color

do a puzzle

read to them

play video games

make charm bracelets/jewelry

hope it helped!!
