Yes, you know the panic – little Johnny is coming and he’ll never sit still for 5 seconds, nevermind the speeches! Well don’t worry here are some great ideas to keep children entertained and happy and their parents over the moon that you’ve taken time to think of them.
It doesn’t matter what the parents might bring to keep their own children occupied, kids will always be more interested in something ‘new’.
1 Colour in Tablecloth
You can’t go wrong with a colour-in tablecloth. Even better if the children are sitting amongst all the adults, this will keep all ages entertained with the adults having a great excuse to doodle, colour and create.
2 Paper dolls
Remember these? 
These paper dolls are great fun.
3 Games to keep children entertained
For smaller children how about some happy families (the ultimate wedding game surely?!).
4 Colour in finger puppets.
Have some fun both colouring and creating your very own puppet show with these simple farmyard finger puppets.
5 Sticker Sets
Repealable sticker sets are great too, with either a Fashion Boutique or Funny Faces option.
6 Colouring
Other colour in activities include the colour in party poster. Perfect for older children. Or the colour in around town.
Finally – No. 7 – an Activity Bag to keep children entertained all day
why not combine some of the above in an activity bag for each child. Maybe, finger puppets, and Happy Families for the younger child and party poster, and Happy Families for the older child.
Having children at your wedding need not be a headache. With these ideas they will remember the occasion for years to come, enjoy every minute without disrupting the event and happy children means happy parents and happy guests…plus, trust me, the adults will love colouring in too!!!
