Here's a way to make your job easier! Gather everything you need or think the kids will enjoy and be ready at a moment's notice. Some suggestions for your backpack include:
* Bible
* The Official Christian Babysitting Guide
* DVDs
* Yo-Yo
* Deck of cards
* Paper, color pencils and crayons
* Travel-size games
* Candy (get permission from parents
before rewarding kids with treats)
* Children's Bible
* Boo-Boo Repair Kit
* Small flashlight
* Film canister with pennies (for games in The Official Christian Babysitting Guide - do not use with babies)
* Bubble Magic (recipe in book)
* Balloons (do not use with babies)
* Art Supplies (safety scissors, fabric, socks, yarn, glue, etc.)
After each job, be sure to restock used items, so you will be ready to go again! For more suggestions, refer to your personal copy of " The Official Christian Babysitting Guide."
