So, ah...

How does one keep a large group of children amused?

Give them something to play with.

Like a finger teddy bear.

Or a human being.

[halfherfather]

...I could give them the old teddy bear I have, I suppose...

[capslockk]

Or make a game! Something like hide-and-seek, I suppose. You keep most of them quiet that way, since they mustn't be found.

I apologize for my lack of knowledge in regards to children.

[halfherfather]

Now that's an idea.

...It's fine. I'm quite..ignorant in this category as well.

[morethanabot]

A game might work. Or finding a way to turn chores fun...

[halfherfather]

That's a thought...

[morethanabot]

Hrmmm....

Some of them might enjoy a puzzle or a story depending on how young they are...

[halfherfather]

They, uh, vary?

[land_of_the_sun]

Depends. How old are they, señorita?

[halfherfather]

They range from...five, I think, to twelve.

[land_of_the_sun]

In that case..the younger one would like to play with some kind of toy or draw! Small kids love drawing things, but you need to be sure that the pencils or paint they're using it's not toxic. You can play a sport with the older ones, or just give them balls and they will entertain themselves playing soccer.

[halfherfather]

How do I...get these things?

[rulescanbiteme]

In my experience, children tend to enjoy being given toys and games to play with.

Especially things they can hide in. Like boxes. I've never really figured out why.

Oh yeah, and shiny things. Can't tell ya how many times I've had kids try to touch my guns...

[halfherfather]

I probably should keep my sword sheathed then...

[rulescanbiteme]

Yeah, that'd be a good idea. Wouldn't want 'em to slice a finger or nose off by accident. Or stab themselves in the foot.

[halfherfather]

No, no. That wouldn't do.

[devil_forge]

All children like games, especially ones where they get to run around.

[halfherfather]

I'll have to make a list.
