Be the Best aunt & Godmother

Saturday, June 21, 2008

Being the best aunt and godmother to your niece or nephew can make you feel like you're a person the child can look up to. You can be somebody to tell everything to and ask for tips or advice as they grow. You will feel that you are doing something that not many people can do.

Offer to babysit often.
Play with them when they want to.
Play what they want to play.
* It will most likely be something their parents don't have time to do with them, like playing barbies, or with playdough.
* Get down to their level, sit on the floor with them, play like your a kid too.
Buy them toys and candy.
* But teach them not to expect gifts all the time. They should know the best gift is your time, attention and love.
* If you buy them a lot of candy, be sure to encourage good dental hygiene.
Have sleep overs.
* Let them stay up late.
* Eat junk food for dinner.
* Do fun interactive stuff together like crafts or games.
Take them to parks, play grounds, and other fun places.
When they get older, listen to them when they have a problem.
Give advice especially when needed.


* Your money may run out if the child asks for too much, so don’t be a pushover.
* If the child is an infant, get ready to be awake late at night when babysitting.
* If you aren't babysitting but spending time with the kids at their parents home, give the parents a break and take them outside or do a quiet activity. You might get a little special from the parents

* The parents may ask you to babysit when you don't feel like it -- know when to say no
