1. what i used to do with my sister when i babysit her was i pretend to be mad at her (in a way she knew i was only joking) and keep pretending to fall and hurt myself like in a cartoon and that kept her busy for a while laughing it also helped her when she was angry and she was hyper as well
2. Disney channel Club Pogo (online) Arts and crafts
3. You can put on a dvd of a cartoon,sing to them,hide and seek,psp,ps3,xbox,wii,online games on the computer.
4. I know something that will entertain you. Give them kool aid and pack it full of sugar and bring em outside and just watch them run for an hour, later they'll fall asleep and it gives you a time to sleep.
5. Have some structured activities. Boys or girls of this age love arts and crafts. Go to the dollar store or a hobby lobby type of places, they often have things like play dough, or the felt boards you can color, or little painting activities. You can also make things with them just using paper ( just google paper crafts for kids), write their names and let them color over it in different colors. Maybe you can bake cookies together, play outside, take a walk to the park, read books, just keep them engaged in a activity so they don't have time to get board and make there own things to do.
