I am babysitting for this wild kid on Friday evening. He is a good boy age 7. BUT, he is everywhere at once! Any ideas on what kind of calming things I can do to entertain him so he isn't running through the house like a little maniac? I can just see him falling into sharp corners and things! (link)

Play games that have strict rules, like hide and go seek (but really you have to go find him), mother/father may i?, red-light green-light, you can even create games. It actually turns out to be really fun once he gets into it. and then he'll think that you're cooler and he'll tell his parents that so they'll think that you're a great babysitter and they'll call you for more jobs. And even if you absolutly HATE this kid, just accept the jobs b/c hey, your not in this to make friends with the kid, youre there for the money. By the way. The LEAST that you should be getting paid is 5 bucks...no lower and no higher than 8 bucks. Good Luck!
