I have gone from 3 under 5's to 5 children 2,3,6,7&9 I am finding it good in terms of coping with them all but got 1 child that is very hard to please:panic: !!
The 3 and 6 yr old started last week and their parents have given great feedback and said the kids love it with me :clapping: but when they are here the 6 yr old does nothing but complain. Everything I give him to eat he hates (apparently) though his mum tells me that they are great eaters and will eat anything. And he does not seem to want to join in with the younger kids (too babyish) and the older 2 he is not interested in playing their "stupid games" so I feel a little stumped. He also seems to ignore everything I tell him but again parents tell me is very well behaved and affectionate?!
Any tips - I am hoping that he is just testing the waters as I am new and will snap out of it?!
