My experience of watching kids is awesome and wonder. My favorite activities I love doing with kids are whatever the kid/ kids wants to do but mainly go outside and have fun. I performed a lot of responsibilities by keeping an eye on the child, just anything, whatever it is I take care of it and all of it.
