This very simple activity involves the children lying down on the blanket longways and then me pulling them around on the lounge floor (we have a wooden floor - suspect this won't work for carpet!).
For the more adventurous whipping them around corners is great fun (bike helmets optional for added protection!). Also the older ones can sit up and then I jerk the blanket hard and they have to try and stay sitting up.

The humble sofa (1)
My children's favourite game is called "throw me on the sofa".
The name kind of says it all. I win if I can get all of my children on the sofa at the same time. They win if they can keep me from doing it until an agreed time (or more likely until I'm too tired to carry on).
This was a lot easier when they were younger - but now requires me to pick up the youngest put him into the eldest daughter's arms and push them both onto the sofa then grab the next one and put them next door but I never seem to able to grab the fourth before one of them has escaped.
Great fun for all the family!
