Q: i reciently started babysitting for a four year old girl who we'll call kim and and her 18 month old sister we'll call lynn. kim has this problem where if she doesn't get what she wants she gets really ugly. she truelly is a terror. she swears at her own family, expecially her grandma who is the nicest lady in the world. she is a total jerk to her sister and anyone who watches her or even her own family. I don't know what to do with her, we'll play games and she'll still get really angry. i need some advice on how to keep a crazy 4 year old child who can yell for hours on end accupied for a few hours while trying to care for her younger sister at the same time.
find out what she`s really interested in, something that will make her calm. for instance, this one little boy i use to babysit could sit and play video games for hours and he wouldn`t be as crazy as if he couldn`t play video games.

thanks, the only thing is that she isn't interested in anything that could keep her occupied for hours
