It is best to keep them busy with plenty of Playstation games, exciting movies, board games and also colouring books, barbies and Lego for all to involve in the activities. We can prompt the children to have a competition in building the fastest and most beautiful Christmas gift of their own using various craft materials or the most meaningful Christmas picture that you can decorate in your house this holiday.

After all, it is the holidays and both you and your guests have taken time off work during the holidays, so make sure you take the time to sit back and take it easy with your company. Keep the days entertaining, but not crammed full of activity. Be sure to schedule in activities they enjoy. Perhaps theres a special exhibit at your local art gallery or museum theyd like to see while theyre in town. If so, offer to watch the kids while they go, and then take the kids to see a movie or ice skating. If these options are a bit too energetic for you, they might also enjoy playing a board game or watching a movie or television program at home. The gift of your time will be fondly remembered long after your guests have returned home.
