- Relax. Children can sense fear, so relax and enjoy them. Keep a watchful eye on them, but don’t agonize and replay the worst-case scenarios over and over in your head.
- Lighten up. Forget about trying to follow a plan when they’re in your care. You have to be realistic and understand that they might not enjoy the same things as you do. Ask their parents what their children enjoy doing, and read up on kid-friendly activities in your area.
