I lovely childminders, activity question - How do you keep your afterschoolies busy? Mine seems to get bored with most things very easily. Most things only keeps them busy and entertained for 10-20 minutes if that. What sort of toys/resources do you have for them? They are ages 5 - 9 years and both boys and girls.
Another thing they seem to just want to do pretend fighting ie kicking, hitting etc. I know this is just what specially boys do at school age (however the girls are just as much into it) and talking about killing, beheading (this they are learning about at school), poo, farting you know the usual gross things etc. Again I know its all normal for this age but how do you deal with it as I do not really want any of this. I just think for say for example a 2 year old its hard to understand they are not really hitting and only pretending etc
Thanks in advance
Annelize
