[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My youngest cousin is 38 years younger than I am, so it doesn’t seem to me that your kids have that big of a cousin age gap.

There are lots of things that 13 year olds can do with younger cousins. Decorate gingerbread houses. Puzzles. Drawing or art activities that allow for different results based on skills. Hikes. [/quote]

They all love hiking and doing puzzles so I’ll definitely suggest those activities. Gingerbread houses sound too messy. My daughter is not into art but her younger cousins are so that’s a no go.[/quote]

You sound like fun. Gingerbread houses are too messy?

DP,
but oh my God, yes! We got some kits last year to with several kids from the extended family. At the end, I wanted to rip out my hair. Everyone's skill level was very different, Some just wanted to sit down and eat all the candy, the tears when something fell apart. And some parts of the kit weren't a good fit. I would do a gingerbread again with my own kid, but it'll be a cold day in hell before I do gingerbread houses with other people's kids.
