Small children are a snap. All you have to do is make everything reasonably fun, and work the system like Sesame Street, Winnie the Pooh's corner, the Cosby's with a slight touch of disciplinarian (..while gazing over the top of your spec's at 'em and looking displeased..) now and then.
If someone has a small accident, your best Snuffleufagus, "...Ohhhhhh dearrrrrrrrr....", some Handi-Wipes and a BandAid or two will generally solve most of the problems.
A pocketful of GumBall Quarters for WalMart or the grocery store is always a good idea, also.
A collection of used but servicable dirt bikes and or a nice sport boat goes a long way with older kids.
Tee hee.
