I got to babysit an 8 year old. What activities could keep her busy?
Answers:
Fun! 8 yrs old is a great age! They love to do everything! For an 8yr old girl I'd figure on Barbies,playing cards,board games,DANCING,painting fingernails,building a fort with couch cushions,etc. Just remember what you liked to do when you were her age...and enjoy yourself!
I have to say, I'm impressed that you want to entertain her and INTERACT with her instead of camping her in front of the boob tube! If I were the parents, I'd pay you extra for that! :) Save the movie for bedtime.
Videos. Lots of cartoons. The Disney Channel.
