Being the oldest of nine cousins, ages ranging from 3- to 14 -year- old, I get to look after them quite a bit when the parents want to go out. I have done many summer camps where I was alone with groups of five to eight children of various ages. I am very responsible, organized, but at the same time love to have fun.
