Start of the hols so knew today would be busy but if I hear the words "what are we going to do next?" I will SCREAM!!!! I arranged for a trip to the park first thing but "am tired" then I had messy play with finger painting but "what do we do after this" then we had lunch & I put music cd on but "I don't like this sort of music" then we made easter bonnets but... "am a bit bored of this" then we had a walk but... "its too cold" then we played cards but "I only like playing if I win" then.. HOME TIME!!!!:clapping: :clapping: I have another 3 days of that little angel!!! Have children lost the art of amusing themselves if only for half an hour? My other mindees had a great day and didnt want to go home!

aww hopefully tomorrow will be easier for you.

mine bought his ds with him so 2 hours this morning connecting 4 ds's followed by easter colouring sheets and an easter maze which took us up till lunch then they played in the garden for an hour followed by watching a dvd ... nice relaxing day but the mindee i have this wk treats my home like his own anyway, he has been with me for 3.5 years now and just slots in like a family member.

When it gets a bit too much I count heads and times by the amount I'm earning :blush:

I had an 8 yr old complaining that he was bored today despite walk to shops, painting plant pots and playing in the garden most of the day. :thumbsup:

We are going to the cinema tomorrow afternoon so just need to get him through the morning!! Lol :panic:

I have had 10 today plus 6 x 13 year olds in my daughters room (friends)

We have had the playstation going upstairs alongside a space invaders competition on the pc, the tv upstairs, babies in the bed room and craft on the kitchen table. Result 1 big mess and lots of happy children

We took a picnic to the park and after a 30 minute walk they were all climbing the play equipment or playing football or tig on their scooters.

A fantastic day and we are off out again tomorrow for more of the same if the weather holds
