This book has six activities you can do with your children. These activities would be great for parties, or any large gathering. The book has instructions and a list of what you need for each activity. A couple of them are the Tug of War, Creating bottles with layers of colored salt, water races. This book was a reminder to me of things that my family did whenever we would get together with other relatives on our farm or when we would go camping. This was a reminder of a lot of great fun that I and my family had growing up. This is a definite book for parents. This is enough to give you a start on activities to do together. This seems to be something that is missing in families today.
