Along with molding clay, my son also settles down wonderfully with sidewalk chalk. He can use his imagination for quite a long time out there. I literally now stock up on big quantities since I know anytime I am outside now and I need him to stop running around and do something less crazy, I offer up chalk.
Sometimes you just need to find something tactile for their hands to stay busy... your child may not care for clay or beads, but might find something fascinating about creating their own games or drawings outside.
