Another kid's quiet activity help is found at Mormon Chic (free), Studio 5 (free), and Green Jello with Carrots (not free, but really cute and great pictures and ideas for talks, and FHE).
You can create fun file folder games from these sites. I found to cut lamination costs if you don't have a laminator print them out on cardstock and place them in plastic sleeves in a binder. The binder helps keep everything together really easily.
Store the activity pieces in a ziploc baggy. Use a file folder and cut one side in half to create the folder sleeves and either hot glue or staple the edges and label the activity on the folder's label section. For the file folder activity pieces print out on cardstock and laminate those small pieces. Adhere the laminated pieces to small magnets with super glue (avoiding gluing your fingers).
You can buy cheap baking sheets at Walmart 3 for $10.00. To use place the game sheets on the baking sheet and the game pieces will magentize through the game page page to the baking sheet. To reduce noice of the metal hot glue the underside with felt, and if you want to take it to the next level you can also spray paint (Rustoleum brand wroks best) and modge podge scrapbook paper into the inset portion of the baking sheet. This makes it look really cute and less baking sheet looking.
