Hi
I have just registered and have started minding a brother and sister - the boy is 9 and the girl is 11. They are both very bright. She enjoys fashion design and he loves toyota cars.
I have asked them what they would like to do but they haven't come up with too many ideas. The mum is a single mother so can't afford to give extra outing money - and I am skint so need to keep my money. I don't want to have them sitting around doing nothing as I see it as my role to keep them active as possible.
I live opposite an emormous park if that helps with ideas
Do any of you have any suggestions on how to keep them amused for minimal cost. I have them 7 hours a day, 4 days a week.
I must say i am delighted at having got 2 children so quickly
Thank you
Giselle
