What to do with a sick kid all day long
It's only 9:21 - he feels so crappy and the croup has turned into an awful cold. I obviously don't want to take him out, but I don't know that I can survive a day in this house.
If it was nicer out we'd be in the yard but it's not, and that's not easy to tell an almost 2 year old.
PLEASE help, I need ideas. Sesame Street is getting old FAST!

Noggin Noggin and more Noggin.
Does he watch any movies?
I agree with C...even if it's not raining, maybe just a few minutes outside with some fresh air would help
Hope he feels better SOON!

I agree with some fresh air, let him dry out and get some germies off of him.
Does he like movies? Try Cars.

How about a walk in the stroller? Or his wagon if he has one?

I agree with the fresh air. I've been dealing with 2 sickies the past 3 days and needless to say I'm ready to claw my eyes out. We went outside yesterday and at least I'M feeling more upbeat today.....
Hope he feels better soon!

Re: What to do with a sick kid all day long
As long as he's not feverish, I'd definitely go for a walk to get out for a little bit. 
I was there last week. Both kids were sick, I was pretty much home with them for 4 days. I was so happy to go back to work bc I was out for more than a quick run to Starbucks or the store. They watched a lot of stuff On Demand.

Re: What to do with a sick kid all day long
As long as the croup wasn't caused by allergies but by a virus - then there is no reason not to at least take him outside for a bit. At least in your back yard of for a walk around the neighborhood unless it is raining.
Otherwise, stories, movies, toys that you can just sit and play with like blocks etc. work well here - and lots of cuddling.

Mattea is not well and she was outside at 8;15 playing with her sink. Fresh air is GOOD!
Feel better Jack
