I was immediatly going to suggest coloring books- but the older boys
are probably a little too old for that?
One homemade thing you could add is a coupon good for a special
afternoon out with just mom or dad- no siblings. Maybe to go to a
park, or to an arcade, or just to grab an ice cream cone. But, with
so many kids, and another baby coming in, the older boys may feel
like they don't get enough "me" time with you two. That would be a
good add-in, I think.
If you want to do another single-use camera, maybe get them each a
dollar store "brag book" album to put their pictures in afterwards.
Dollar Tree usually has a decent selection.
The candy bar idea is great!
