Last year my SIL, Michelle, designed (based on various models she's seen) Cousins Camp. We basically get all the cousins together in the morning sometime, sing a song (she rewrote the words from "take me out the the ball game" to "take me out to the ranch house"--priceless!), say the pledge of allegiance, and do a craft of some kind. She's even made adorable t-shirts and the kids get on their ranch hats and boots...it's some seriously good fun. Then, we all get creative. Here's a flavor over the week: 
The hats and boots and T's
We painted this awesome sign (yes, parents get to share the love and get creative too!)
Thumb-print pictures
God's Eyes (Yes, that was my day, thank Willowbrook again)
We also made characters and animals out of tp tubes, pictured here, fourth picture down on my SIL's reunion post. They have the kids's faces, it's worth clicking the link. We also made puppets--boy were those creative (and hilarious). Especially with the parents doing some too! The kids always look forward to Cousins Camp, it is a brilliant idea!
