Babysitting Workshop Mutual Activity

For our combined YW activity last week we did a babysitting workshop.  My advisor put this together and did a great job!  We gave mini classes on some of the basic stuff - like how and when to change a diaper, how to soothe and swaddle a baby, and what to do in emergency or stressful situations.  We put together little first aid kits with hand santizer (in fun colors and scents - you can get them at Target), bandaids (with cartoon characters on them), and alcohol wipes.  We had a baby changing race (the picture is of two of our leaders getting in on the action).  And we put together file folder games to put into babysitting kits.  I think it went pretty well.  (Even though none of our Laurels showed up - turkeys!)
