Random babysitting tip: how to keep a kid quiet May 11, 2007
Posted by Niels in : How to , trackbackA friend of a friend has a gig babysitting for a professor’s kid after school. She takes him to the park, gives him something sugary and lets him run around until he wears himself out. Then it’s back home for the inevitable sugar crash and a quiet evening. Brilliant! Now all I need is someone to trust me with their children.

definitely the oldest trick in the book :) the other way to stay sane is to continue to remind yourself that after a set time, that kid is no longer your responsability
The television (esp. Baby Einstein DVDs) makes a good babysitter too, but the child might develop ADD. :P
thats what nintendo wii’s and 360’s are for.. after the park!
