Got some big pictures in coloring books already used up?  Take a hole punch 
and with them over the plastic canvas, punch your own 'connect a dot' setup.  
Now use the yarn and some big blunt needles (crochet hooks work) and let the 
little one make the yarn into the picture from the book.
Watercolors.  If you lice in an area safe enough, cut them loose on the 
driveway with water color paints.  Just plop your chair at the street end and 
put them near the house in 'playclothes'.  Dont be afraid to tape big 
swatches of paper to the driveway if needed.
