<<Greetings all!
I would like to know where I might find a good resource for childrens 
activities that are at least semi-period.  ANY help with this will be more 
than greatly appreciated.  Keep in mind I am looking for indoor activites as 
the event they will be used at is in February. Thank you.

Here are a few ideas, if you need specifics e mail me 
make coins using plaster,
make paper and ink and then write a letter and seal it with wax ( teach 
caligraphy and the next thing you know you have your own scroll making work 
force )
make pouches out of leather ( if you can get leather punches - it's even 
better)
make jester batons ( a neat thing to do - work well with younger kids as well 
as older kids)
make hats out of paper ( or paper mache ) 
make garland wreaths
make period game boards, let the kids decorate them and then store them for 
use at other events
make decks of cards, once again let the kids decorate them, make stamps out 
of potatoes and stamp the cards- thats always fun
