well you DO NOT want to play that because you'll be screwed if you can't find them. Try board games like:
-sorry
-candy land
-clue
-guess who
or card games like:
-go fish
-slap jack
-trash
-war


or watch a movie

hope i helped

-You could have a water ballon fight
- You could play borad games like twister, sorry and any other games you have. A borad game that is really fun Cranium.
- you could have them play a tug a war game
- you could set up a race.
- you could play cerades
- Advice with younger kids i learn that they dont have a long attention spand, so games shouldnt last that long.

well sometimes when i babysit i have them play in the water, and i sometimes take them to the park. if you want someone really easy try picking out there favorite movie and making them and snack and having them watch it, or you can get a few board games and the winner get 2 pieces of candy.

hope that helped a lil.

Ok..well for mi strategy i usually use this thing called a suprise box..if you have any old toys that you used to use wen you were little or sum toys from your lil brother or sister if they have any..the good thing is that this can work for all ages..decorate the box and make it look colorful..make it something that they will look forward of doing whenever you come...hope i helped! ;]

first look around their rooms or toy rooms. observe the types of stuff they like to do. play with their toys with them. rent movies about what they like.

I babysit all the time..I find it most helpful if you just ask them what they want to do, or sometimes tey will entertain temselves. Play boardgames, watch movies, or just go and play outsdie.

PH03N1X answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 8:13 am:
you could get some kids movies that they could just sit and watch like get two or three different types of videos that they could pick from and if they dont want to watch anything ask them what they want to do and if its not suitable compromise with them that way they wont hate you either or just play school games like what they would play during break with they own friend for example ring-o-rosies or somthing like that. hope this helps, good luck x
