I can suggest a couple of activities kids love:

Memory game: One student leaves the room and the others decide to perform an action such as Cooking, sleeping etc...(try to use the verbs they are learning) Then,  the student outside comes in and has a minute to remember what each mate is doing, right after students are told to stop doing the action and the student who memorized has to say what each was doing.....you can have it as a competition and see who  the student with the best memory is. ( adapt it accoding to how many sts you have)

Scrambed verbs: On a pice of cardbard cut out diffrent verbs ending in ING example S-L-E-E-P-I-N-G (one card per letter)Studens in groups are to unscramble the word and if it is correclty spelt they should also perform the action, they are given 5 points per each correct spelt word and 5 extra for performing the action!

Hope you like them!!!!
