Most of my stuff comes from here;
https://www.facebook.com/PagingFunMums But I have two boys who hate some of the crap.
This week has been or will have ;
- Nerf gun battles.
We shoot eachother or do target practice. We get plastic cups and draw scary / funny faces on them. Put them around the house and shoot them.
Also have long range comps to see who can hit the furthest with 5 bullets max.
- Trampoline fun. Just jump and go nuts.
- I bought a 1,000 pack of water balloons. So far used 100 I think. The mess is easy to get rid of, just use a garden blower to suck it all up.
- general water play. Go to $2 shop and buy cheap water pistols and play outside.
- go to the beach.
I have only just come back from there 30 mins ago. We stopped and bought a $5 kite and some of those bubbles. On the beach the kids don't have to blow or do much, stand still and kite takes off and bubbles blow around. Plus it makes them look k00l as other kids gravate towards yours..... then they all play and you chill as they made friends and are happy.
- again; $2 reject shop, buy some paints (water based) and a 20m roll of butchers paper. Roll it out on the driveway, give them pain to walk, hand/finger paint or just paint in general. then let it dry, and hose down driveway later with high powered hose.
- make kinetic sand (google that one) hours of fun
- break out the lego; also good and easy
- go to the park, swings etc. Or go to a GOOD maccas that has a good play area that's air con'd. One here is fully air con and I take the kids to get a ice cream and a run around in the air con play centre.
- Also, if your in BNE, go to LollyPop Land. Its on the south side near where I once lived (Runcorn area)

Buzz me if you need more ideas. I have shitloads from spending a year at home with my kids.
