I have to babysit a 10 year old family friend a bit later today.. Spend the day with this kid..
WTF do I do all day? Anyone got any tips or pointers?
I have no computer games to give him and I don't exactly wanna leave the TV or computer on all day and sit him in front of it..
Anywhere to take a 10 year old or something? Dear lord this is hard..
Go to the zoo bud. Or the aquarium, or luna park. Or just tie it up in your closet and go for a cruise.

another good one is to go to a classy shopping centre, and wrestle. make sure one of you ends up in the garden beds for good measure. chadstone is my place of choice for this.
ECOTEC KICKED IN yO!!!!!!
Take him/her for a walk and use them to pick up chicks for you! Sweet!
Just do your normal stuff and let him tag along. When I keep an eye on my niece (7yo) we wash the car, go shopping, visit friends - the normal stuff. I just make sure she is included and she has a ball.Originally Posted by Shounak

A lot easier then I thought it would be..
Might go kick the footy now.. I'm a champ..

Yeh for a few hours they're good fun. I love spending time with my nephew but after a day or so doing the right thing all the time gets old.Originally Posted by Shounak

You put you left foot in, your put your right foot in , you take your left foot out and you slide it all about!

last month when he posted it up!!!

Done and dusted..
I took him for a spin in my car, he was thrilled by the Undue and excessive noise. Went to Intensity, played some car racing games. Took him to Maccas. Kicked the footy and played Texas Holdem (I kicked his arse)..
A productive day was had..
