Hey,
I have one mindiee at the moment along with my own daughter and son, and shes usually here in the mornings and after school. With half term coming up she is coming to me for 1 full day and guess what..... ofsted are coming to visit that day.
The problem i have is shes very reluctant to do any activities even with my daughter... she might start but never finishes..
She gets the hump.. sucks her thumb and looks at the floor refusing to talk or explain what the problem may be. Then sits on sofa asking for hannah montanna on because this is all mum and dad do.... TV!!!
I have a routine during the day when children are here all day which i do allow tv time after dinner..... but with this being her first full day with my self and activities planned im so worried about how ofsted are going to be when she refuses to do anything but sit on sofa sucking her thumb.
What would you all suggest. I have started to ask what she would like to do when round ours to get her more involved and interested..... but not gettin very far thanks to mum and dad letting sit and watch tv 24/7!
