What low-cost, low energy things can I do with my kids this summer?

bedroom decorating for girls games image

it's just

I'm tight on cash, struggle with depression and have injuries in both feet. So summer camps are out, things that take a lot of energy to plan won't happen and I can't play physically with them until I heal. I want them to still have fun though. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

They are girls, ages 10 and 5.

Answer
Why don't you put up a tent in the living room! or get the girls to decorate a bedroom as tho it was a tent! i love that idea! im going to do that with my 7 year old daughter. Have lots of pillows, sleeping bags.. you all sleep in there! it's mad! Play games! make some home made pizzas (just use english muffins as the base) Get the girls to put on their Fav. toppings. Tell them stories. I think it's a great way to have fun and not pay much at all!

What name would work well to finish this sibset?

Elle and C

These are three girl triplets...
Wrenzie, Alexeya, and (This is the name I need to figure out)

The girls are have blonde hair, blueish eyes, and freckles across their noses. Even though they are in seventh grade, people often confuse them for sixth or even fifth graders. Wrenzie (This is actually her nickname her real name is McKenza Wrenzinsky) is an extremely friendly girl. She has an open personality and loves to get to know people. She is also a very fast runner. She is on the track team and participates in nearly every event. She holds the fastest record for her whole school, and is proud of it. She gets along really well with her sisters, and is always smiling her beautiful smile. Her favorite colors are blue and red. her favorite books are any book that crossed onto the face of this earth, and her favorite track event is the 100 meter, the 200 meter, and the relay races. She usually wears shorts and a t-shirt with a sweatshirt over top, and has her curly hair pulled back into a ponytail. Alexeya, or Alexi for short, is very artsy. She loves to draw flowers, and sometimes draws other things too. She loves to help out and loves her loft bedroom, which is also considered the attic in the family ranch. The dark wood floors have a pink quilt, and the walls are painted a peach color. Her bed consists of a pink quilted cover and pillow. She usually styles her long straight hair in pigtails or just leaves her hair down. She owns a horse named Potato who is gray with white speckles. She is talented at ballet and loves her pink tutu. In the winter, she likes to go sledding with her sisters and her little brother Brian (whose nine years old). Her favorite color is pink, although she also likes yellow. Her favorite sports are ballet and horse back riding. Her favorite book is War Horse.

What should I name their triplet? This is a description of her:
Even though she is their sister, girl number 3 looks nothing like Wrenzie or Alexi. She has long wavy, honey brown hair and hazel eyes. Her favorite colors are red and pink, although she likes red better. Her favorite book is the Hunter Games. She has been studying the French language since she was ten, and is nearly fluent. She loves birds! Her favorites are snowy owls, although she only owns a canary named Pickles. Girl number 3 is a snowboarder. She has a red snowboard (with a matching red snowsuit) on which she painted a snowy owl. She loves riding the slopes when winter comes along with sledding with her siblings. She's also a painter and musician. She plays the flute and the guitar. She paints birds. She and Wrenzie share a room. They have a bunkbed. Girl number three has the top bunk, and has decorated her pink sheets with a nightangale on them, while Wrenzie has solid red sheets. Girl number three's favorite sport of all time is hockey. She is on the junior varsity team and is captain of her team. She's really easygoing and doesn't do very well at math in science, but is good at all her other school-subjects.

Answer
I think that you should name her Eloisea (Eh-lou-ise-a), but Elo for short. But if you don't like that I think her name should be either Skylar or Lydia.
