Poker and Scrabble are out of the question, I guess. That's what we did when we last had a power cut. It was too cold for anything more interesting :p :

Go out? Play at making shapes on a wall with shadows from the candles? Rock, paper, scissors?

Sorry, I'm rubbish at this sort of thing :mark:

Well, for yourself, a bottle of Jack Daniels for starters...

Light a candle and do shadow riddles. If that's not good enough, draw together. Or tell him/her what you used to do, before there was nice little gadgets like Playstation and stuff.

Tell the child a story. Make it up as you go along. That's always fun :D
