I would like to talk about a time I help my sister for babysitting her son. So it happened three months ago. My sister, uh, needed to go to another city for some business, and she lead somebody to take care of her son. However, nobody in my family were available at that time, so I kind of volunteered myself. M my sister lives in another city, which is about, um, 100 km away. So I drove all the way to there, to her city. When I arrived at her apartment, it was about 10:00 a.m. and, uh, she left in a hurry. So anyway, my refphew is a very active and energetic person. And that day, he already exceeded his life screen time limit. So I couldn’t allow her to watch cartoon or play video games. So I, um, actually bought a set of aeroane chess, which was my favorite ball game when I was a child. And I briefly taught my leftew about the rules of this game and how to play it. And he picked it up quite quickly. So we spent the rest hour day playing this game until my sister went back home at night. Uh, I feel very happy about the whole experience because, um, it offered me a very perfect chance to bond with my nephew and also help my sister out.

I'd like to talk about a time I helped my sister by babysitting her son. It happened about three months ago. My sister needed to travel to another city for work, and she couldn't find anyone to watch her son. Since no one else in the family was available, I volunteered. My sister lives in another city, about 100 kilometers away, so I drove there. When I arrived at her apartment, it was around 10:00 a.m., and she had to leave in a hurry. My nephew is a very active and energetic child, and that day, he had already exceeded his screen time limit. So, I couldn't let him watch cartoons or play video games. I decided to buy a set of magnetic chess, which was my favorite game as a child. I briefly explained the rules to my nephew and how to play, and he picked it up quickly. We spent the rest of the day playing chess until my sister returned home that evening. I felt very happy about the whole experience because it gave me a wonderful opportunity to bond with my nephew and help my sister out.
