The two activities that seem the most fun are mad lips and indoor snowballs. These two seem the most fun because when the text stated in Mad Lips, "Mad lips are a hilarious way for kids to brush up on their parts of speech." I think mad lips would seem most fun because I like hilarious things like what the text evidence said. The text stated in Indoor Snowballs, " An indoor snowball fight is a fun way to burn off some energy as a family, while also ensuring that no one gets hurt and nothing in the house gets damaged." I think indoor snowballs would also seem most fun because safe fun can be really fun and I like really fun.

- In the future, try to not use too much quotation as part of your paragraph (since you want most of the paragraph to be in your own words). You can try to incorporate diverse adjectives and structures in your sentences to sound more interesting (less repetitive). Also please cite the source/website that you quoted from!
