What kind of activites should a babysitter plan?

Question

I am babysitting a two boys. A 6 year old and 3 year old who is VERY VERY hyper!

What are some fun activities that won't make them bored.

I'd like the crafts or activities to be specific please. Also, the "bring a movie" idea didn't really work out :p

Any ideas? Thank you soo much!

Answer 1

look on the internet for making homemade stuff ... such as fingerpaint .. playdough .. bubbles !~! it keeps them busy for the most part and the three year old will play with it all night long !~!

Answer 2

Will you have access to a backyard or park? At this age, just something involving running around, throwing a ball would be best

If you're a teenager, this may seem bunk, but check out the American Girl Babysitter's Business Kit. It comes with a kit of what the child had for a snack or lunch, stickers, and a small book of activities. In the book, it gives you fun games and recipes for young kids of all ages from infant to 8-year-olds. Happy reading!
