I Need Babysitting Help.?

Question

I need to babysit a nine year old (male), two seven year olds(male, female), and a three year old.

I need ideas for activities that are both safe and entertaining.

I want the kids to like me so that I am recommended to other families.

Help, I don't have much time at all.

Answer 1

Ok, first ask all kids about their interests. If the older kids like sports, then maybe teach them how to hold a baseball bat. Don't ignore the 3 year old, though, and make sure they all have fun. Try and stay outside and play, unless the weather is bad. If it is hot, get them into their swimsuits and have a water fight. Eat outside. Do chalk(kids love it when you write their name in fancy letters). If its raining or too cold read books to them, watch movies, or play board games. Hide and seek is fun, but make sure they know the boundries so none go running down the street to hide, lol.

As for getting recommended, get the parents on your good side. Have the house be just a little bit cleaner than it was when you came. Do the dishes, and clean up after your done playing. The parents WILL notice, and a little extra work will go a long way.

Random tip--  If they are going to bed within the hour, sit them down to watch some tv or a movie. Make it be something quiet, so they are really calm before going to bed. PAY ATTENTION TO THE TIME. If you have them all hyper right before bed, then your going to have a heck of a time getting them to sleep.

Good luck!
