Do you care for kiddos and sometimes run out of ideas to do with the kids??? If so, read on! I would like to share a little something with you. :)
This idea came to me while babysitting my younger siblings, Collin (7) and Hope (5). We call it:
activities. Pretty creative, huh? I know I should come up with a better name! But that's the name for now.
We start by writing out "activities" (hence the name) on strips of paper. After folding all the strips, we place them in a bowl. You can probably guess the next step. :) I have the kids take turns in picking an activity to do. Here are some activity ideas: short games (e.x. Go Fish, match games, etc.), read a book together, and prepare a snack (popcorn's our favorite). If you have high-energy kids, include a slip that tells them to run around the house several times! ;) Also, I included small chores for them to do. They were motivated to finish them so they can go on to the next activity! :) The possibilities are endless! Be creative!
