How long are you babysitting for. I would not suggest you play with him in the room his mom needs to her business. Watch "Cat In The Hat", you'll see that didn't go to well. A three year old is content to play quietly with toys that they can build-like building blocks, waffle blocks, toy trains, marble run etc. Outside is good. I am not sure what time you are babysitting but outdoor play in the park, sand box, or water bucket, a hose etc. I don't find 3 year olds have a good attention span for movies unless they are short - 30 mins like Blues Clues etc. Fill the tub with water and play boats, pirates, bubble baths - just don't leave the kid in the tub alone. You can even throw plastic blocks in there as well. You can also stay in a bedroom and tickle him, run around in the bedroom after him, play hide and seek with him etc. Playing in enclosed place is great to keep him focused and out of the space mum needs, so you don't have to clean it.

Tell the mom that he keeps making it a mess and ask her what she wants you to do about it........cause if you go punishing him and then the mom thinks its unfair then you could be in lots of trouble.... or take him outside (then of course he would mess that up thought) or put him in a playpen or something.... hope this helps!

Okay - if you are calling him 'Devil's child' then you are not an appropriate babysitter. Call him mom and tell her that she needs to get someone else that can handle this job.

He is 3, your fighting alosing battle. Get him out of hte house so he is not inside trashing it, other than that make him pick up his own messes, he need to learn if he gets it out, he picks it up.
