Giant cracker family game ideas please

I always make my own themed crackers for our big family buffet on Boxing Day, this year I got some great 'reindeer hoopla' ones from Lidl which has saved me the effort but i have a big cracker that I'd like to fill with an all age game/activity for the whole family to do after lunch. In previous years we have had a kazoo each and played name that tune, origami instructions and paper, gliders and parachutists, clockwork toys for racing etc etc. it's just this year i feel like I've run out of inspiration, as its a giant cracker there's plenty of room inside and I have 12 people from 2 to 86 to amuse. Anyone got any bright ideas?

  • Have a look at Hawkins Bazaar. They have a lot of fun stuff that I've used for the kids in the past. They have things like bouncy balls, little stretcht people, yoyos, slinkies. There might be something useful that appeals
    I need to make a new list for 2014
    think of something to put on it!:rotfl:
    Try harder for 2014 as I never managed it in 2012 or 2013

    the only other idea I've had is to fill it with individually wrapped sticks of plasticine and challenge people to make stuff but i'm not sure how that would work...
