Try the first and most effective way of getting them away from you. Act like you are not aware of them trying to harass you, and kindly (with NO tone) ask them to leave the room.
Stay calm. If your little sibling is whining and asking you to play, stay as calm as you can; getting angry with them or shouting at them will make them tearful and they are likely to run off to your parents and complain. Sometimes they will be so upset that you will have to give in to them and nobody feels happy.
Suggest they go and get something to eat or drink. If they do, they might forget that they were bothering you about something.
Move their interest elsewhere. Get them interested in something else that they can play by themselves. For example, suggest to them “Wouldn’t you rather see ‘The Lion King’ DVD?” or, “How would you like me to set up your computer game?” or “Why don’t you go and count the clouds and see what shapes you can make?” or “How about coloring in? You love coloring in!”
Make a compromise. Offer to play a game that they really like either straight away or later (depending on how you feel), as long as they let you play your game without them. This will give them some of your attention and it will let them get over their need to spend time with you
You should spend time with you little brother because it shows him that you care about him. He doesn’t mean to bug you, he just wants to spend time with his older sister.
You’re a big role in his life. He looks up to you. So what ever you do he will do and if you treat him nicely he will treat you nicely. Its kind of like monkey see monkey do.
Surprise him and take him out to the park. You should spend at least 15 minutes with him every day. Here’s a tip if you have home work and he has home work you guys should do it together and you can help him.
If you little brother is just getting into reading. Sit down with him and read a book every day because when he ask you to play a game or something else say you all ready sat down with him and read a book. Then say maybe tomorrow you can do that with him.
If your brother is really hyper and is shouting then take him outside or play an active game like hide and seek, tag, baseball, soccer, ECT. They don’t like to be coped up and they like doing things that are action packed.
If he wants you to do something and you don’t want to bribe him into doing something else.
If he is really loud tell him you will give him a quarter-dollar if he can be quiet for 10 min. Only works on cretin ages (2-6) and if you don’t want to give him money then make sure you have fake money they won’t know the difference.
Show them new things they can do to keep them occupied wile your trying to get something else done.
Play the game Hide the Spoon. Get a spoon and hide it some were in the house but make sure its easy enough to find (depending on the ages) and it will keep them looking wile you have time to relax.
Put in a movie, or turn on the TV (to something age appropriate) and pop popcorn it will keep them entertained and if you have homework but they want to spend time with you then sit down and do your homework wile they watch the movie.
