Christmas drinks with kids!!

[Flowertop]

Hi have invited approx 18 people and their kids for xmas drinks in afternoon. Kids main age is between 9-11 and are mostly boys. Firstly I intend to feed them pizza and sandwiches - is this ok? and secondly what can I do with them without them being bored. I do have 2 ds' but know they will complain of being bored within 5 minutes and then I will get annoyed. HELP Inspiration needed please.

I would just ignore the kids. They will soon make their own fun.

Pizza and sandwiches are fine.
I'd set up TV in separate room, give them some DVDs and let them get on with it.

Just occasionally popping my head round the door to bellow politely request, 'stop running up and down the stairs'; 'that's probably enough wrestling/light-sabring, lazer-gunning and 'don't play with that football in here'

Thanks CA I was hoping that ignoring them would be ok but just worried they will all complain of being bored.

Do you have any games machine, whenever we have friends round the boys spend most their time on the xbox or dsi's

Do them a treasure hunt... boys love competitions!
