Show them love. :) You know usually when they are annoying you can always know at least they love you. ;) Also give them a whole bunch of movies to watch lol.

Little kids long for much attention, maybe do some outside activities that might help them get tired enough, that they'll just collapse and fall asleep. Then maybe you can have your own time. ;)

Just play with them, and lighten up about it :P SMall kids love running around and tiring themselves out. When they behave, give them a hug and reward them, it's really simple, especially if they love you.

Ah well like ML said reward them with good behavior. Little kids are just like puppies and no offense to any little kid here.

I suggest video games. if you are better at it than them, just show them how to do a few awesome things. my cousin DJ used to show me a few of his video game secrets when we were younger, and I adored him ;)

making them some Koolaid increases your awesomeness level with them too lol

I suggest locking them in the cellar... :evil:

:hmm: ...to be serious though, I do babysitting. Some kids are annoying and constantly demanding attention whilst others are quite good and helpful.
With both types, one needs to always remain in control. You say something, they do it and they will be rewarded with extra Television time or something that they like. If they do not, then they are not rewarded. Simple.

Fun things to do is play board games.
Read books, if they are very young and are being difficult you get a favourite toy and speak through it for example:

''Monkey wants you to do tidy up now.''

It may feel stupid but it works.

Television may be good, but it depends.
Or you could take them out to the park or go out in the garden and play a few games.
Or you could do a ''treasure'' hunt around the garden.
Or build a ''tent'' inside the house. Those are fun, unless the parents have a problem with it then it's the kids idea. :innocent:


You have a lot of options. Just play with them. Have fun with them but remain in control. Some kids, if they think that you are easy to be intimated will be the one's who control.

Hope some of this makes sense.

Gah, I hope I don't also sound like a tyrant.;)
