My FD (2.5) has been in a hospital bed for a week now and is getting sick of watching movies, coloring, painting, and playdoh. Any ideas? she will probably be here at least 3 or 4 more days. She normally goes nonstop all day everyday so this new for her.

Manicures and pedicures, board games depending how old of a 2.5 year old she is, video games, appropriate web surfing. My son was on [url=http://www.Readtomelv.com]Read to me - Las Vegas[/url] the other day and it was pretty cool. Disney and pbskids also have kid appropriate web content. You might ask if she can go to the playroom for a couple of hours a day if they have one. Of if you can put her in a stroller and drive her around the hospital.

A pony tail holder, penny, dime, paperclip, etc. I put it all in a freezer zip lock bag and typed the list of what to find. I also duct taped the bag shut. This was after my dd's surgery. Leap frog has lots of electronic toys that are geared for different ages. Stickers are fun, just give her a book, a sticker book if you can find it, or just a note book and let her fill it with stickers.This could be fun[url=http://www.amazon.com/Alex-Toys-Giant-Busy-Box/dp/B001AQDA50/ref=sr_1_23?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1299952004&sr=1-23]Amazon.com: Alex Toys My Giant Busy Box: Toys & Games[/url]A magnetic play set like this one[url=http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-Deluxe-Magnetic-Dress-Up/dp/B0012GV1HM/ref=sr_1_83?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1299952123&sr=1-83]Amazon.com: Melissa & Doug Abby & Emma Deluxe Magnetic Dress-Up: Toys & Games[/url] (there were some others too, one with bears and others with scenes)Maybe a doctor kit she can use on a doll or bear?
