they are 9 & 12 & only holiday care for summer. Mum only let me know she was going to use me yesterday!! Sign contracts on Saturday. Not sure why she left it so late. Any ideas to keep them busy. The 12 year old girl is very quiet & not keen on much...I have some outdoor games incl swingball & a tabletennis net etc for use on my table...any other ideas?

Would you allow the girl to use your laptop? Mum wants the boy to watch DVD's which is ok but not all day...mum is odd TBH but hope it goes ok. Originally she wanted the girl to be able to go & visit her friend over the road but I told her my insurance would not cover me!!

how about some trips out to the parks or do you know of other childminders you could meet up with?
things like hama beads, jewarly making, lego, knex, baking, a game of footy, prehaps some grown up activities like cross stictch or model making
