What are some fun games to play while babysitting??

Question

I babysit an 8 year old girl for 5 hours tomorrow and I have no clue what to do to keep her occupied. Let me know of any fun games for the two of us to play.

Answer 1

Surely she'll have some games and things to do at her house! An 8 year old girl surely can keep herself occupied without your help, unless she gets hungry or hurts herself or needs other kinds of help.

Answer 2

u could play  dress up, chutes and latters, candy land, also what ever she wants to do!!!!!!!!!

good luck

Answer 3

go for a walk - just around the block

print out some mad libs or do some on the computer. there are a lot of funny ones on this page -- http://www.eduplace.com/tales/

good ol' fasion game of "hide-n-seek"

create a scavanger hunt.

if the weather is nice, play some jump rope, or make chalk drawings. play hop-scotch.

make an easy obstical corse.

if she does ballet or gymnastics or dance have her show you her dance, or her routine or tumbling skills.

play soccer

play board games

play pretend games like, bakery, house, hair dresser (just make sure she doesn't use real sissors!) or even make up your own waky stories

color -- wheather on coloring books or just paper.

watch a movie

if you do somthing show her. If your a cheerleader, show her a cheer, if you play basket-ball show her your slam dunk  

dance! crank those tunes! that also may help just before bed time or just before you watch a movie to wear her out.

in the summer, play in the sprinkler, or swim (with parrent's permition) in the winter make a snowman, fall - play in the leaves, spring - play in the puddles!

in the winter it's really un to scoop up some CLEAN snow and poor some fruit juice over it. like a home made snow-cone!

make a smoothie

make cookies

play with her dolls or her new toy!

make believe your at the beach! lay towels on the grund and play beach ball. you can do that indoors to.

make/have a picnic!

make a puppet show of paper bags and crayons.

thats all the stuff i can think of. i hope it helps have fun babysitting!
