We have yet another round of the sickies going on in this house.
And I woke up with zilch energy to deal with two sick kids all day.
I had resigned myself to the idea that they would sit in front of the tv ALL day.
My friend Jane texted me an idea to make a batch of "throw-away" play-dough. Honestly, I was too lazy to make any play-dough for my sick kids to use and toss, but the idea was brilliant and lucky for me we had a batch of homemade play-dough that was already sitting around and reaching its end of life anyway.
I don't know how the rest of you feel, but I LOVE play-dough. The kids really go wild with it. We're talking 45 minutes to an hour of occupied time...its golden.
It is a little messy, but so is just about everything else my kids like to play with.
Ok, so 1 hr down.....now what?
What do other parents do on sicks days?
