Welcome to YT, thank you for rescuing, and thank you for rescuing siblings. You only have them a few days, it takes time for them to adjust to a new home, new smells, new schedule and most importantly you, a new person. They have to build trust in you, don't rush them, they will come around, everything comes in baby steps with some rescues. Play, like in play with each other or play with toys? Try rolling a ball and letting them get it. Tease them with a squeaky toy then toss it, let them get it. If you have a yard take them to it and roll the ball. No back yard, do you have a dog park near you, try to go with no other dogs are there, just your two, roll the ball, tease with a toy. When I adopted my boy at 2.5 y/o (he is now 4 y/o) he didn't know how to play with toys because he never had a toy. What I suggested above is how I got my boy to play. I didn't know what toy he would like so I got an assortment, rubber squeaky one, plush squeakys, assorted size balls. He prefers rubber squeaky, but will play with the plush also. I also took an old sock, tied a knot in the middle of it and toss it to him.
