You’ll also want to decide which games you’re going to play. We have several that use your pizza box as well as others that just require a few items that you most likely have around your house. You can play all of them or just choose a few.

When my kids were younger, I would have enough supplies for everyone to do one game at a time. I would time them for one minute, and then we would rotate.

Now that they’re older, it’s fun to have them all do the same game at the same time and compete to see who wins. If you decide to go this route, you’ll need to have enough supplies for every child participating.

And now for the games…
