Choose the ages, whether you want to be indoors or outdoors, how much time you have, how much mess you can live with, and how many children are playing. You get five ideas that fit, each with a quick how-to and what you need.
Not feeling one? Ask for another. Save the ones you like to your family list, then print it as a list or as cut-out slips for a boredom jar. Stay close for anything involving scissors, water, heat or climbing.
Whatever you type stays in this browser. When you ask for the printable or the download we ask for your email once, and that is all we receive.
