I've read a lot on here about ideas for little ones at the reception, but they're mostly tailored for school-aged kids. We're having a fairly formal reception, and the children who are likely to be there are all between the ages of 10 and 13. For the most part, they're fairly mature for their age, so I don't want to put out crayons and coloring books. But I realize they're still children at a wedding and even if I sit all of them at their own table, they're likely to get bored. Bored children can get mischievous...
Anyone have any suggestions for what we can offer pre-teens for the point where they want to check out of the adult festivities? Our venue doesn't have a room where we can set up a movie and we're not near enough to a hotel to hire a sitter for the same purpose. We're also getting married in March, so it'll be dark and likely too cold to set up outdoor games. Any ideas are appreciated!
