Hi Mums!!
My name is lauren and i’m 18, and i’m going in october to germany to be an au pair! ive come to mumsnet because i'm looking after an 11year old, a 5year old and twins (2yrs) - all of whom are boys, and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on fun activities which will keep them entertained in afternoons and evenings? i am very energetic, a good swimmer, patient, arts and crafty and extroverted so i am used to noise (and very much anticipate it😂). ideally i’m looking for age appropriate games / activities which i could modify for the 5 year old and twins to do together (and also some ideas i definitely should not try would be appreciated) also, i would love some ideas (such as swimming / cinema) i could do with the 11 year old boy maybe on an evening to bond with him too. i have been told they are all very loud, energetic and love football. I do have experience with primary school aged children and i have a family relation aged 2 so i have a small amount of experience with him, but i would** love some other ideas too!! i know this will be no doubt exhausting, but i have so much time for these lovely boys and i want to be the best i can be :) thankyou for your time and i'm excited to see all of the fun ideas !!
