play date suggestions for kids ages 4 to 6?

please give me some suggestions for a fun play date. This will be the first play date I’m having for girls all the play dates I have held in the past were my sons male friends…the children attending are ages four five and six the five year old is my son the other two are the daughters of one of the moms at my sons school. I have know idea how to entertain girls I have sons lol. I was thinking arts and crafts maybe having the kids make home made valentines. I need some suggestions please
I plan on having parents involved as well Im thinking of serving some chai tea and perhaps finger foods I want everyone to have a fun and relaxing time

You could go somewhere like Chuck E Cheese or even to McDonalds and play on the playground equipment. If you want to stay in, girls will be interested in some of these things:

Paint nails and toes

Do their hair in braids, etc.

Cooking in the kitchen
Any type of arts and crafts. One I remeber is a house my grandmother had us make out of sugar cubes, frosting, then graham crackers at the top for the roof. It was a lot of fun! You can decorate with sprinkles or different colored frosting, etc.

Use beads and make bracelets or knecklaces.

Almost all kids love to play with mega blocks and legos. That should pass the time.

What about a good movie? Let them pick their snacks.

Do you have a wii? That is good, even at 4 years old.

Have fun!
