Family gatherings are all about reconnecting, sharing laughs, and making memories—but let’s be real, keeping the kids entertained while the adults catch up can be a challenge. Enter Biggo Blocks, the ultimate boredom-buster that will keep little ones busy, creative, and smiling for hours. Here’s how to turn your family get-together into an event everyone (including the kids!) will enjoy.
Create a Kid-Friendly Play Zone
Set up a dedicated space where the kids can let their imaginations run wild. Choose a comfy, well-lit corner, lay down a soft mat or rug, and organize your Biggo Blocks into bins or baskets for easy access. Having a clear, cozy play zone will keep the kids engaged and in sight while the grown-ups mingle.
Add Themed Building Challenges
Take the fun up a notch by giving the kids a theme to build around with extra large building blocks. The possibilities are endless:
- Thanksgiving Dinner Creations: Challenge the kids to “build” their favorite dishes—think turkey, pie, or even mashed potatoes.
- Family Portraits: Who can create the best block version of Aunt Linda or Grandpa Joe?
- Seasonal Decor: Let them craft fall leaves, wreaths, or even a snowman if you’re leaning into holiday vibes.
This gives kids a creative focus while allowing their imaginations to shine.
Provide Simple Building Guides
Not every kid wants to freestyle right away, and that’s okay! Provide step-by-step guides for fun builds like rockets, ducks, or even a Minion. Biggo Blocks building blocks for kids offers plenty of easy instructions to help kids feel confident and explore new building skills.
Encourage Team-Building Fun
Family gatherings are all about coming together, so encourage teamwork with group challenges. Try these:
- Tallest Tower Contest: Which team can build the tallest structure without it tipping over?
- Racing Creations: With Biggo Blocks’ Wheel Sets, teams can build cars and race them across the room.
- Obstacle Courses: Create tunnels, hurdles, or bridges with the blocks and let kids navigate their way through.
Not only do these activities promote teamwork, but they also keep kids moving and engaged.
Build a Gratitude Wall
Add meaning to the day by creating a Gratitude Wall. Assign a specific color block to each child and ask them to write (or share) one thing they’re thankful for before adding their block to the wall. By the end of the gathering, you’ll have a beautiful, colorful reminder of all the gratitude in the room—a fun, visual way to celebrate the season.
Offer Fun Prizes
Kids love a little extra incentive, so keep the energy high with small prizes for their efforts. Hand out stickers, little toys, or even extra blocks for categories like “Most Creative Build” or “Best Teamwork.” It’s a simple way to keep the excitement going.
