I run an in-home daycare. I have 7 children (1 is my own). Yes, I know that I am crazy :) Being summertime, I am having a difficult time finding activities to fill the day. I have structure, but I would really like to replace some of that "tv time" with things we can do together. I have two different age groups, and they tend to split up...so that's good news. I can do things with the babies while the big kids are playing and vice versa. I have all boys, ages 2, 3 and 14 months. The bigger boys are 6, 8 and 8. I also have a baby girl who is 8 months...don't need ideas for her, but I thought I would throw her in the mix! I am looking for inexpensive ideas. The typical coloring and fingerpainting just isn't cutting it anymore! Any suggestions?? Thanks!

Try to get the big kids to help the little kids.
I found out some things that are cheap:

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3168464

All fall under Ages 3-5




Try to have themes such as:

Power rangers day

care bears day

ETC.





I have raffles for the toys that are old


Play games all together like 7 up.

Ok,I'm 13(gal)and i babysit 2 boys 3 times a week for about 4 hrs. There 1-1/2 & 6 yrs. old the 6 yr.old will NOT listen, i tell him not to do something and he still does it. Every time i have a problem i tell the dad when he gets home,but he never does anything.I have been babysitting for around 3 years and I've never run into this problem before. I'm thinking about starting a discipline plan.If he acts up i will tell him to go to his room,if he doesn't do that I'll tell him were not going outside that day etc.(i say what i mean and mean what i say).Then if it still doesn't work after a few days I'll tell his mom i cant babysit him anymore.I just cant handle him.I just need to know if other babysitters like me think this sounds good. thanks.

make deals. Say if you eat all your veggies we'll play tag. Every babysitta sooner or later is gonna have to disiplne the kids (to test u) so bring activities! Cards, etc.

P.S. Try to see how the kids parents teach 'em. They may be abusing him. That's why his dad didn't do anything.. maybe until u left.

Okay, this may not seem like a problem, but I started babysitting for this one family this summer. They have a pretty big house and good jobs, so it's not like they are poor. I think they overpay me though. I know I shouldn't complain, but they paid me $40 for watching a 4-year-old and a nine-year-old from 6-11pm....and they pay me $100 a week to watch the 9-year-old while they are at work during the summer....watching the nine-year-old basically consists of watching tv or watching him play nintendo or watching him fish. it's not a hard job, and I enjoy it...should I say something about the high pay, or just take it as them appreciating me and being nice? I don't want to get more than I deserve....

Tell somebody then ask a friend how much he or she gets paid, but if the parents ask you to do something wierd or freaky.. RUN. The could just be luring u so always bring your cell

15/Female

I guess I am really lonely/bored. I am "popular" and friends with a lot of different people but they always seem to be busy, working or on vacation.

I know I'm feeling desperate but I have been invited to some big parties but haven't gone since I don't feel like lying to my parents (even if I didn't drink or blaze I can't go home smelling like that). I'm afraid that I will get bored enough of sitting at home doing nothing that I will go to the party and get myself into a lot of trouble.

I guess I'm asking what I can do to meet new people if I can't sign up for camp halfway through summer, no sports teams are running, I can't get a ride anywhere to volunteer, I'm home alone all day so I basically can't get a ride anywhere and my parents don't want me to work yet.

I really just don't want to waste the summer being alone.. I spend enough time doing that (I'm an only child). What can I possibly do? I know every person in my grade in my highschool it seems hopeless.

Thanks.

you should meet people by aproaching them and tell your name. Then start a conversation. Join some clubs and then try out for captin (if u wanna) then you'll have the whole team as your friend! If you want to volnteer go to a nursing home. (take a bike or ask one of your new friends)! :-)

I want to join the flag twirlers team. Sorry, i cant remembe exactly what it is called, but i know that it starts with a "c."
I just wanted to know if they were considered like unpopular, or are they more like cheerleaders?
Also, is it hard to be a flag twirler?

Hev

Take it from me. I'm a captin in flag twirling. It's fun! Cheerleaders and flag twirlers are the same: They do pep rallys but they get to march in parades! It's challenging to be a flag gal but you get to do so much things!
