Hi! First time asking, just found this blog, but I’m babysitting at the moment. Anyone got any advice? The kid really seems to like busses.
Schmitty: Hi anon! I’m Schmitty, I’m basically the resident dad- (chuckles) and uh... define busses? Because if it’s toy busses, then just make sure they clean up after themselves-! Letme tell ya, slipping and falling on a toy car, it’s a pain in ass. Cookie: And uh, if it’s an actual bus just uh- let the kid have their fun, yknow? Give them those uh- bus hats or whatever, letem sit in the driver’s seat, go vroom vroom, hit the horn and yell “HONK HONK”, go the whole nine yards! Kids will go CRAZY for that stuff. Schmitty: Oh yeah, kids LOVE play driving! Man, if only actual driving was that fun... Dot: But whatever you do, anon, don’t let the kid pull on the shift stick. Schmitty: Well yeah, that’s a given- Dot: AND don’t let them know how to unlock the car. Or teach them that the reverse gear is a thing. And don’t park your car on a hill. Oh, and if they want ice cream- just uh- let them get the ice cream, ok? Trust me, it’ll cost way less than whatever the damage costs are for a car after it hits a fire hydrant. Cookie: ... Schmitty: ...Dot, anon was talking about busses. Dot: Point still stands.
