Open up the nursery room, set up a t.v. and insert a popular child flick, put some fun things (basketballs/beach balls) in the gym, and prepare a snack because tonight we are babysitting for the ward!
We planned tonight's Good Works activity to be all about babysitting. We've been advertising in the ward for a few weeks now that on this particular Wednesday parents can drop off their children between the hours of 7:00-9:00 free of charge.We also passed around sign up sheets in Relief Society/Primary just to get an idea of how many children to expect.
We had the girls arrive a few minutes early to help set up. Then we played with the kids all night, while the parents went and did whatever it was they needed to do. A bunch of the Mom's in the ward all went out for frozen yogurt together, and from what we hear this service was very much appreciated.
