Babysitting little cousin! :D

I have to babysit my little cousin, Noah, all weekend. I was wondering what I should do with him? Like activities and stuff. He’s 5, really energetic, and very easily entertained. I’m home alone with him, at my house. From Friday morning until Monday morning. So…: What should we do? Where should I take him? And any tips or anything? :) THANKS.

Answer #1

if he likes sports, try that and when I babysat my little cousin, he loved having some of my friends around, because at that age, just you and him will get old really quick and maybe rent a movie

Answer #2

Awwh! Cute. How’d that go?! I love that little munchkin! I can’t wait until Natalia has her baby. It’s going to be AWESOME :)

Answer #4

I made the mistake of giving my 5 year old nephew some food at the petting zoo. The look of horor on his face was priceless when he had all those animal chasing him. He instinctivly clenched his fist and started running instead of giving them the food. Dont worry there was no harm done they were mainly small animals, just funny. I only say this so you dont make the dumb mistake I did by neglecting to tell him that is food for the animals and they will come to you if you have it.

Answer #5

Take him to a park, with swings and slides and stuff. Play in a sandbox with toy trucks and animals and so on. If he has a trike or a bike with training wheels, go riding with him. A lot of what you do he’ll love to do with you just because you are his BIG cousin. Be prepared for unexpected bathroom breaks, lots of drinks, some snacks. Have fun! If you do, he will! Play games with him - trouble, I spy, Simon says, red light green light. Colour. Make paper airplanes. Have fun food for lunch - stuff he wouldn’t usually get, but still likes. Not junk, though. Enjoy your weekend!

Answer #6

Okay, thanks. I was thinking of taking him to go bowling, and then another night, to go and see Mall Cop in theatres. I wanna take him outside a lot to play football and soccer, because he loves them. But mostly, I think we’ll just play games and stuff that he likes to play. On Friday night, I am going to go out for supper with my friend and her little sister and him. Haha.. That sounds so lame. But… Are those some good plans? :P
