Aside from that, I’m also responsible for other things such as: to carefully watch out for the younger kids, set up chairs, tables and activities, help put away any harmful items and to set a good role model for them.

For example, I know in my church that many adults have at least more than one child and many have their kids to join in the camp for the parents to enjoy themselves. So, it’s my duty to carefully watch over the kids and let them have fun without having their parents
