How do I hold on to kids entertain and festive while babysitting?
I'm starting to babysit 3 kids and its gonna be for the whole summer so I need some ideas going on for how to keep 'em busy. I'll be with them for pretty much the whole daytime. There's a 5 year old boy, and 7 and 9 year old girls. I want to do something fun like everyday that keep them happy and entertained, cuz TV and the computer get super boring so.please lend a hand!!
Coloring, legos, movies, tag, hide and seek.
Scavenger hunts are fun too!
If they have a backyard play in it but don't transport them to the park unless they are VERY behaved because they might disobey you, get hurt, etc, and YOU will be responsible.
On a lighter note, kids wallow in tag, musical chairs, charades, learning fun dances to songs, finger/sponge fine art, origami (keep it simple), playing card games like uno or go fish, playing dress up or pretend, or making snacks together. But of course bequeath them some free time too. They are gonna want to do their own thing and watch some TV, play with toys, etc.
Got to the park. Community things. Most are free.
Well, it is good to have some things planned out, but supply them options, especially at that age. Take them out to a library for reading some days, rent some videos other days (also, many librarys will preform this function for free), several board games, outdoor activities like soccer or other games, art and such.
But one thing that could give a hand you out significantly would be to ask them what they want to do for upcoming days.
Answers: Come up with different Ideas that you would like to do during a week (like going to the park, museum, community pool, etc). then ask the girls what they want to do, (that will put together them feel like they are deciding) and just shift out and have fun.

if you find a huge box and endow with them something to draw with it will keep
them busy
put some skit movie on and give them some toys to play with.
play some board games or go outside and play some sports
Find nice areas in the community and take them on walks. Play near the hose outside, ride bikes, play some soccer, kickball. Take them to a field with bats, ball, hoola hoops. Go swimming at a community pool if parents give the ok to spending a little money. Go on a picnic.
