For two 5yr olds, one 4yr old and a 2.6yr old with speech delay.
I am helping a friend out next week by having her two kids for the mornings. I see these kids a lot, and they are very comfortable at my house and around myself and my kids (a little too comfortable sometimes!) If left to play they very soon start being very silly, one child has an obsession with other people's bums for example.
I am trying to think of things that are a bit more structured to keep them busy.
So far I have come up with:
Playdoh
Hama beads
Drawing/colouring
Film with popcorn
Dressing up
Decorating cakes/biscuits
The problem is that they all have very different attention spans. My DD will spend an hour quite happily drawing, but the younger ones will do a quick scribble and want something else to do.
Any other ideas?
