[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Malls, book stores, and coffee shops should not be nanny/child destinations. There are libraries, parks and Rec centers all over the country that offer activities that are age appropriate and stimulating for young children. This coming from a veteran nanny, the only stores I go to with charges are grocery (for family), hardwear & garden centers, and pet stores. I do pick up things for myself if I'm already there by parents request. Please find more stimulating things to do with your charges than malls & coffee shops![/quote] You are aware that some malls contain actual sectioned off play areas, right? They're usually for toddlers or very young children, as far as I've seen, but I do believe I've seen one that had equipment that older kids might enjoy for a bit. It's not like just sitting on a bench, aimlessly walking, or shopping. It's stimulation and interaction with other children. The same you would get at a park.[/quote]
