Kid friendly sandwich lunches?




Paper Wing


What are some simple lunchbox sandwich lunches I can do for kids besides pb&j, grilled cheese, and ham&cheese that does require a lot of time in the morning? (or I can set up the night before :) )

Thank you!



Answer
Cut some cheese so it resembles a stick of butter and cut slices. Bag them in ziploc and do one in crackers. Then cut slived ham with a biscuit cutter and bag it too. Put the 3 bags in a paper bag and put it in the frig for in the morning. Paper lunch bags can be bought as a bunch in plastic in stores.

Good outdoor kids games?




Chrissy


During the summer we get the kids together in the neighborhood and "teach" them the games we played as kids. You can imagine my surprise when none of them had even heard of RED ROVER! So I need a list of outdoor games, so far I've got:
potato sack races
3 legged races
egg toss
egg race
simon says
Red light, yellow light, green light go.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

These easy outdoor games are competitive, so they are just right when you have favors and prizes to award. They work at family picnics, birthday parties, and other outdoor group events. The best part is you can set them up at a cost of next to nothing!

1. Balloon Stomp
Supplies Needed: Balloons, string
Let the kids blow up their own balloons and tie one to their ankle with string. At the 'Go' signal, everyone runs around trying to stomp on and bust each others balloons. The last person with an intact balloon wins.

2. Jump Rope Relay
Supplies Needed: two jump ropes
Form two teams and set the boundaries of the race. At the 'Go' signal, the first two players race to the goal and back, jumping rope. The next player goes, and so on, until the winning team is declared.

3. Hot Potato
Supplies Needed: boom box; bean bag or at your outdoor picnic, use a real potato!
Players stand in a circle, and a parent or teen starts the music. Players pass the potato around the circle until the music stops. Whoever is holding the potato when the music stops is out. Play continues until one winner is declared.

4. Hula Hoop Contest
Supplies Needed: Hula hoop for each child
Great for a small group of children. Play music to make it more fun. At the 'Go' signal, players begin 'hula hooping' as long as they can. If the hula hoop drops or players touch it with their hands, they're out!

5. Outdoor Scavenger Hunt
Supplies Needed: printed list of nature items for the hunt; a location where nature items such as rocks, bugs, leaves, etc. can be gathered
Give players or teams the printed list of nature items to find. Some suggestions are rock, leaf, bug, pine cone, twig, something red, yellow, orange, or other color. The first player or team to report back with all of their items wins the prize.

6. Water Balloon Toss
Supplies Needed: balloons filled with water
Divide group into teams of two players and give each team a water balloon. Line the teams up an equal distance apart. Players toss the balloon to their partner; and, then, everyone steps back one step. Keep tossing the water balloon and taking a step back, until one team is left with an intact water balloon.

7. Freeze Dance
Supplies Needed: boom box
Play some wild music and let all the kids dance. When you stop the music, everyone freezes. Any movement, and you're out. Award the prize to the last dancer standing, or to the best dancer.

8. Bingo
Supplies Needed: Bingo set and lots of prizes
Cool down at the picnic table with Bingo. Adults and kids love to play, so you can use it during lulls before or after lunch, or when it just gets too hot to run around.


This site has an abundance (too many to list here)of different games along with "click" references to tell how to play
