about
You can ask me about ANYTHING, and I mean it. If I don't have an answer to give you, instead of making something up, I WILL find you somewhere to go where you will be able to find out what you need. My inbox is always open, and you are quite welcome to IM me on AIM. I think thats about all you need to know, but if you've got other questions...well...see above. =)
advice
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!
Try going outside (preferably in a FENCED IN area..) and letting him run off a lot of his energy in the first hour or so. Then when you come back inside, put in a movie and dim the lights (or turn them out completely) so he gets sleepier. If he will drink it, try something like warm milk or caffine free hot tea to settle him down. This should make him calm down greatly, and the only time you should really have to deal with a wild child is when you are outside playing games. Good luck!
(Rating: 5) Excellent advice. Thank you!
