A Personalized Activity Jar For Kids
It’s been a long day. Your kids are full of energy and maybe even a little bored. You’ve exhausted all the activities you usually do and could really use a couple of minutes to yourself. Sound familiar? Well, we have the perfect solution for you: our Hooray! Adventure Jar for 2 or 3 kids!
The Hooray! Adventure Jar for 2 or 3 kids is not your average activity jar – it’s personalized with the kiddos’ names AND looks! And it includes a wide range of activities – short ones, long ones, sporty ones, artsy ones, ones kids can do on their own and ones you can enjoy together as a family. It even allows you to add some of your own!
Sounds amazing! How do I do this?
Simply personalize your kids and email yourself the free printable. While you wait for your printer to do the magic, find an empty mason jar, then cut out and glue the personalized label onto the jar. Cut out all the activity pages, stick them inside the jar, and you’re done! Now it’s your kids turn. Have them pull an activity out of the hat – well, the jar – and watch them go nuts over these amazing kids activities from their very own personalized activity jar.
But what kinds of activities are we talking about?
Here are just a few examples of the types of activities you’ll find in our Hooray! Adventure Jar for two or three kids, the best personalized activity jar ever!
Get Artsy And Craftsy
There’s nothing better than drawing, playdoughing, cutting, gluing, and glittering up your day! And the Arts & Crafts activity has you covered here – just prepare some materials and let your kids’ imagination run wild.
Speaking of imagination – admit it – you’ve always wanted to try out your magic skills and Brew Up A Potion. Your kids can make an easy potion that will bubble and fizz and do all kinds of exciting things, just like they do in our new personalized book for two or three kids. Simply mix some liquid dish soap, white vinegar, baking soda and food colouring and watch the magic happen. Warning: it might get a bit messy.
Get Sporty
In the mood for some sports? Have some Fun On Wheels – either on bikes, roller skates, skateboards, even wagons – anything with wheels really. Or maybe you’ll be lucky enough to find the Have A Race activity? Then you can have a three-legged race, a potato sack race, a sprinting race, or even a toy car race – all you need is a couple of planks, and the racing can begin.
Get Cozy
Or how about a simple inside activity? Our personalized activity jar offers those too. Grab a flashlight and have fun creating shadow puppets with your hands. Some of our favourites? A bird, an elephant, and a swan. The options are endless.
Or put on some music and go crazy with your moves while having the awesomest Dance Party ever! That can be before or after an epic Pillow Fight. Just remember the rules of fair fighting and keep it soft.
And a Reading Marathon sounds like the perfect activity for a cold or rainy day. Make a cozy spot with blankies and pillows, make yourself a cup of cocoa, and enjoy some bonding time with mommy, daddy, or grandparents!

Get Outdoorsy
But then again, you can also head out for a change of scenery and enjoy some Picnic Time. Your kiddos can be in charge of grabbing the picnic blanket and a few games while you pack up some delicious food and snacks in a cute picnic basket. The kiddos will surely love having their lunch and snacktime outside.
And for the most ambitious explorers out there, inspired by our book Adam and Silas: The Dream Team, you can Make Your Own Treasure Hunt – write up some clues (or find some online) and send your kids on yet another adventure. What treasures will they uncover? It’s up to you.

Get On Adventuring
Are you looking for ideas for a whole day of fun? We’ve got you covered. Put up a tent in your own backyard and enjoy some impromptu Backyard Camping with sleeping bags and singing. Just don’t forget s’mores – it’s not camping without s’mores.
And if you don’t have a backyard, why not put up a tent right in the living room? Add some mood lighting to make it feel like you’re sleeping under the stars, and enjoy some Spooky Story Time. But, we do NOT recommend bringing in leaves and sticks. Although it would give it an authentic feel. Hmm…
So, all in all, we’re sure our Hooray! Adventure Jar will give you plenty of fun ideas for kids activities. Check out our other freebies for siblings, too!
