FAMILY BINGO NIGHT

BINGO


I know it sounds old fashion but if you theme it:
Easter egg for Easter
Chocolate for Christmas
Water toys for summer
everyone gets into the spirit.
GREAT FOR USE ON YOUR INVITE

You can use a bingo game 
or
so there's no cheating LOL

If you google "bingo printables" you can print off bingo cards
(numbered or pictured for younger children)

Give prizes for:
four corners
a line
and
BINGO!!!

THANKSGIVING FAMILY TRADITION

This is a lovely Thanksgiving tradition that can be added to year after year.
This could be adapted for Christmas, Weddings, Birthdays or any special occasion really.

Family and friends write what they are thankful for or a short message or just their names, and babies hands are drawn around in a sectioned off part of a tablecloth which is dated. 
Then all pen marks are embroidered as a permanent keepsake

PAPER AEROPLANES

Liam has a friend coming over on Saturday, 
and if the bad weather keeps up we will need some indoor activities so they don't think they can play on the Wii or DS all day.

So we are going to construct, draw a design on them and fly them 
(who's goes the farthest wins)

We have the Klutz paper plane book

but you can find templates and instructions
here

and here

and some fab colour printables on dad can do

And here

Have fun with your Family!!!
