Im going 2 go babysit a 10-year old boy. Ive babysat youger kids but not this old. Any fun suggestions on what we could do??

 


 

 Hey girl, boardgames are always fun, or since he's 10, he can tell you what he likes to do probably more than the younger kids you babysit! Just make sure that what he wants to do is safe.

My stomache really hurts, its 'that time of month' but the stomache flu is also going around in my house. Anyways, I have plans to go babysit with a really good friend of mine at 6:30/6:45... but the actuall babysitting is from 7-12pm. Yes you read that right, seven to midnight. I took advil and tums a few minutes ago, and might go take a nap. What else should I do? And how should I deal with my period at my friends house? I don't want to be in the bathroom all of the time.

 

hey girl,

 

just let your friend know that you have your period and aren't feeling well. She'll TOTALLY understand! as for feeling better, I think you are doing the best thing. also, try drinking hot tea.
