Build forts, build block towers, put on some little kid music and dance around the house. Bundle them up well and take them outside to run around for a little while.

I am 14 too and I have watched groups of kids that age. Here are some things you can do, but do NOT play hide-and-go-seek.
- dance around with them (in a open space)
- say you are going to show them what you do in school and make them do like a hundred jumping jacks
- kids like that get tired fast
- make up safe games that are fun for them, and will keep them active
- jump up and down with them, grab their hands and jump to music
Sorry, I would get more ideas, but I get them as I am babysitting, not before.

well, im about to turn 14 and i babsit my 4 year old brother all the time! they get so annoying! u could try to make them do something that makes them think, and have fun! Try arts and crafts or maybe teach them a game. I have had to stay home from school to babysit too. But, i actually like school. Just, try to keep them entertained and educated! =]

Scavenger hunt. Treasure hunt. Beach time in the bath tub. Picnic on the floor. Building tents in the living room. Races. Twister style contests.

Remember to prepare some games because kids have a short attention span,they cannot stand on one game..kids love to eat,you can also prepare some goodies that will make them comfy at home,and prepare the nutritious ones.no junk foods..

Get your parents to put a small trampoline inside.. any jumping at all will do well
