Very often we are faced with the question of entertainment for the child and his guests at the holiday. I would like to do everything in an original, beautiful, safe, unusual and preferably inexpensive way. In fact, the solution lies on the surface.
1. Bowling. To do this, it is not necessary to prepare children or teach something, and most importantly, lead them to bowling. You can arrange it at home. You need 10 meters of free space and some empty plastic bottles. Bottles of water, yogurt or kefir are suitable. There is also an ordinary medium-sized children's ball.
Teaching children to play bowling with these improvised means is easy. Organize a competition between teams. Usually the guys like this activity very much.
2. Drawings with a sponge. Use regular scouring pads, acrylic paint or regular gouache, and drawing sheets. Any geometric shapes can be cut out of a sponge, and, if desired, animal shapes. We dip the sponges in the paint and get multi-colored drawings on the album sheet. Show the children how to do it right. At the end, you can arrange an exhibition of the most beautiful and original works with the presentation of prizes to all participants.
3. Frosty patterns. Take white gouache, duct tape, and clear freezer bags. Pour gouache into the bag, about one tablespoon. Tape the sealed bag to the edge of the table with tape. When you press on the paint, it will leave the original patterns on the bags. Children will love this activity, because these patterns are very similar to those that frost leaves on glass.
4. Costumes of fairy tale characters. You will need paints, colored paper, glue, and a roll of old and unnecessary wallpaper or other paper. The size of the wallpaper should be twice as long as the child's torso. Use colored paper, glue and paints to depict various fairy-tale characters. You can put on a play involving all the children. But the costumes can be prepared in advance.
5. Fishing. Take a small plastic bowl, magnets, paper clips, colored cardboard, and a shoebox or small household appliances are perfect. Cut different fish out of cardboard. Attach a paper clip to each fish. Attach magnets to the ends of the rope, and tie the rope to a stick and let the kids catch fish. You can arrange a competition and film it. Of course, boys will be delighted with this activity, but girls will also like it.
6. Orchestra. Take plastic bottles, fill them with bulk products. Also useful are plastic buckets, pot lids, disposable plates. Give all the instruments to the children, show them what sounds they can make. Set the pace and the kids will gladly support it.
