I've finished the packs tonight and have taken some piccys.Am going to link here and hopefully I'm not going ot make the page go all big or something equally as annoying (if it does - I'll fix it! - eek i can't - can anyone tell me how to fix this??)

Here is a typical boys pack:



and my photo challenge list:



A typical one for the younger children/babies:



This was for a 14 year old girl:

we had a range of kids from 18 months to 15 at our wedding and had a load of outside stuff like badminton, blow up skittles etc and a pad of paper and colouring pencils which kept them all occupied for hours - not to mention the big kids as well
also they loved the disco as well

I have just spent ages looking for this thread, as I think it is a really great idea........ saw it last summer and thought, I'm going to do that.

So here is a little bump!

i made some fabric bags which could then later be used as shoe bags, and filled them with puzzles, drawing pads, cheap pencil cases etc anything which would keep them quiet. Also managed to pick up some little aprons for my neices which their mother really apprecisated, a pasta course doesn't really go well with ivory bridesmaid dresses, or wedding dresses for that fact i was terrified.
also my nieces had build a bear bears with outfits instead of flowers to carry and they love them.
