Games to keep kids busy?

Question

I babysit for three kids; 4, 5, and 7 year olds. Their parents don't require me to consistently play and talk with them. Just to keep them happy and not bored.

Do you know any games that'd keep them busy with little help from me? Or that require little energy on my part? Like hopscotch, redlight greenlight, twister, arts&craft, etc?

Thanks. :)

Answer 3

wow... i really hate to hear things like this. okay so  they don't require you to play and talk with them...i really think that the lot of you would enjoy yourselves if you were playing and interacting together. not just pawning kids off on something to keep them busy. seriously, have you got something better to do? and if you do, perhaps you shouldn't be babysitting.

Answer 4

play with play-doh.

if there parents birthday are coming up or any holdiay, help them make a card.
