As part of our class, we discussed that it's important to have family activities for all ages. Every age group has different abilities, skill sets, and wants. Although it may be pretty impossible to satisfy every age group simultaneously, it can be effectively done in rotations. It's for this reason that I thought it might be good to come up with some activity ideas for some general age groups. And since I have nieces and nephews ranging from newborn to ten years old, I have put a few pictures of them throughout the post.
