We usually give our kids pjs as a Christmas eve present. But last year we can across some marshmallow guns and thought it would be fun to play with on Christmas eve. We had a ball. And as an added bonus, it wore the kids out! We'd like to find something like that again. Some sort of toy that we wouldn't allow to be played with in the living room on most days. Something, a little over the top. (nerf guns are out...my son has some of those). We have a 5 yo and a 26 month old (who wants to do everything her brother does!). We thought about the mini helicopters, but I don't think the 2yo could handle that. And the rc cars that drive on the walls, don't work on our textured walls. My son is getting a regular rc car as a gift from someone. Any fun suggestions??
Thanks for the great suggestions ladies! We decided to order the safari hide and seek game. We are looking forward to play time this Christmas eve!
I would do the marshmallow guns again... If it was so fun last year, do it again this year! make Christmas Eve the only time you have a family marshmallow fight, and start a new tradition. :)
It depends on how high your ceilings are, but kids of all ages love stomp rockets! Look on Fat Brain Toys' website. They're mafe of foam, so not too dangerous!
how about a family game?
Maybe have a silly string war.
