    it seems my moh and her hubbie are thinking of leaving my pageboy (their son) who is 9 come to the reception. now i'm not going to have any other kids at the wedding at all and i like the idea of him being there but they are a tad worried of him being bored or hanging out of them while they are waiting for the meal. (least a 2 hour wait).

    hoping ye can help me to come up with a few ideas on what he could possibly do while waiting on the meal and so not to interfere too much with his parents.

    thanks

    honestly we had 3 children at our wedding, we set up a table for them with a big box of lego, 2 Where's Wally books, and a finger football table top game thing we picked up in a pound store, and that entertained them (and some drunken adults) all night long! :D

    Given he's the only child I don't think a table of toys would work. No fun playing by yourself. If he has a Nintendo ds encourage the parents to let him bring it. Otherwise could you invite another child his age?

    To be honest, if they want to bring the child then it's not your responsibility to make sure he's not bored or annoying his parents. If they want him there they will have to look after him.

    That said, the Nintendo DS idea is a good one.

    A friend of mine got her nephews to get all the guests to sign a book at the wedding. More because she wanted them to have a job rather than an attendance list. Still it was a lovely idea.
    I'd be in agreement with the other poster though in that it is his parents job to keep him entertained if he is bored as they are bringing him to the wedding.
