Babysitting is a new trendy business, and there are many online companies. So whether you are an adult or a teenage babysitter, you always want to go prepared to your engagement, get some interesting activities ready for your evening with the kids. The following are two great activities that can be great fun for them. Remember the more you entertain them, the more likely the parents are to call you back again.
Try making your own bubble making solution - Bubbles work with kids of all ages, especially if they make their own solutions. There are a few household solutions you will need but these are found in most homes. You will need dish soap like Dawn and Corn Syrup.
1/3 cup of water 1/3 cup of dish soap 2 spoons of light corn syrup
All you have to do is combine everything and then use a bubble blower, but when you don't have a bubble blower you can use different utensils. Open the kitchen drawers and try different types of utensils. Try a potato masher, a handle with a hole in it, etc.
Another great activity you can do with the kids is making play dough from scratch. To do this, you will need cream of tartar, water, salt, flour, food coloring, and vegetable oil.
2 cups boiling water 4 teaspoons cream of tartar Food coloring 2 cups flour 1 cup of salt 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil
Add the coloring to the water that is boiling. Add all the rest of the ingredients and mix well, the more you nead the dough the nicer the consistency will be. Store the whole thing in a plastic container. You can either make this with the kids or before you go to your babysitting engagement.
These two great activities will give the kids hours of fun. The activities can be combined and if you still are looking for stuff to do with the kids then you can add a cool Disney movie to get them relaxed. Be sure to integrate some role playing in with the play dough making.
