Decent collection of non-computer, non-gadget activities for children which I (ironically) read on my Kindle. While there are a few building and craft activities, the book's emphasis is on word games. Most of the activities are too advanced for my three-year-old, but I will certainly come back to this book for ideas as she gets older.

There are a lot of really fun ideas in this book. We have enjoyed on some cold, snowy indoorsy kind of days.

First off I know I may have mentioned that my Step Daughter is not feeling too well. She has a long term illness and it is running her down really bad. Add that into the mix of two very active kiddos and summer vacation...well you see the problem don't you. So I thought maybe I could help out with a lil bit of ideas on how to keep the kids entertained while not being to taking on mom. Since she does not have internet or a computer for herself or the kids available. I knew that "101 Offline Activities You Can Do with Your Child" was a perfect start. We always did different projects when I was growing up. Princess Emma is working on her sock puppets right now. But I thought that the Grandbabes could use some direction. Some of my favorites were Pin the Food on the Plate using magnets and paper plates. Easy Abacus using a shoe box and uncooked noodles. Or Two-Bit Tiddly Winks that makes me remember playing this game in our hallway when I was growing up. I hope this will help spark their imagination and help out mom too.

What a great book for fun activities to do with your kids!! I definitely want my little monkey to know how to be "unplugged" and have fun doing it! This book has several great ideas that are at no cost to you, all you need is your time and some imagination! Most of the entries are very unique and creative. Others are things/activities that I think most kids and adults grew up doing(IE: Bistro Spy, Gimme Shelter, etc)! I personally really enjoy books like this because in the moment you can't think of things to do and this can be your go to guide!! I would recommend this book to others.
