B&SIL coming w/ 2 boys...any advise for prep?
Alright, so my BIL&SIL are coming to visit for their summer vacation. They have two boys and we don't have any kiddos right now. With that being said, I'm not exactly sure on what to have around the house for an eight and four year old. I have extended an e-mail to my SIL to see if there is anything that they need, food allergies anyone might have, etc. Any suggestions?

No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

How long will they be there?
Maybe a pass to a local pool or rec center. Video games/movies? Library card?
FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
Beach balls and bubbles are cheap and great for outside. Match box cars are great for inside.
Put medicines, sharp things like razors, and cleaning supplies out of reach.
See if you can figure out which kid-friendly tv channels you have (Disney, PBS, Nick).
I have a 4 year old. When we travel to visit family I bring toys and things my son will need with me. YOu may want to have some kid friendly foods available
Breakfast: pancakes, bagels, doughnuts (a real treat for kids!), fruit
Snacks: Cheeze It's, graham crackers, cheese/crackers, fruit, milk, apple juice, apple sauce
You might get a box of Mac N Cheese in case.
Sidewalk chalk. Water park passes/pool pass. bubble guns. if you have a cheap video camera you don't care about, let them make some movies with it. Paper and washable markers. Construction paper, scissors and glue. A football to throw back and forth.
remember too, they are not going to want to play with each other the entire time; think of some places they can go one on one with another adult; or some things to do alone.
Modelling clay is cheap and kept my kids occupied for hours making little animals etc.
