Give them tasks and make them compete for something you promise, like a kiss or lifting them up if they are not heavy :) Dhabarka yuu kaa jabin camal if they are extra weight.


Just play with them and act like you are part of them as a friend. Hope that helps. Screaming at them will make things worse for you like most Somalis do anyway.

Time has gone quicker than I thought - 2 gone home -3 to go.
No screaming from my part.
Feeding was the difficult part though - fussy eaters- I wasted so much food to today.
Usually we are quite close, but when you are the only responsible adult - maintaining the fun aunty relationship goes out the window.

Bring out the snacks, healthy snacks because somali kids are already hyper.
Put on frozen, the sing along version.
Turn off the lights and tell them scary stories, have a campfire in your living room, with flashlights.


Good luck.

Actually that version (Guuguun 1.0) is no longer available.
