How did you learn Grammar if you didn't play Mad Libs.  We laughed so hard it made our stomach hurt.  Add a set of colored pens or pencils.

I saw this idea at a birthday party my daughter went to when she was younger.  A wood letter of the child's name with a few paints, and brushes.  Maybe add an inexpensive palette for mixing colors.  I would suggest 2 or three colors and a white.  You can get craft paints for less than $1 each.

My niece had one of these when she was about 9 years old and absolutely LOVED IT! I don't know the version she had since it was a few years ago, but one prompt said to take it in the shower. I have seen a version of this at Five Below sometimes.

This place has every painting kit you can imagine.  I know, I see them every week at painting class my daughter and I attend.  There are a ton to choose from on their website. And they all come with the paints, 2 brushes and a video tutorial of the painting you choose.
