I’ve had much experience with this as I used to babysit for a family with a disabled child and we had a blast indoors! We’d play board games, do arts and crafts, watch movies, play charades, and so much more! Kids love arts and crafts, you can go online and search google for arts and crafts for kids, there’s a ton of stuff and a lot of it can be done with household items. Coloring is also fun, and PICTIONARY! So much fun, that way he can interact with everyone all while sitting comfortably in his chair. Good Luck! I hope this helps!
what does that have to do with fun out side with the 9 and 3 year old the kid in the wheelchair can play a lot of stuff.. like tag, basketball, a lot of stuff. you dont have to be stuck in the house all day. i have a friend and he is never in the house he is always out side in his wheelchair.
Maybe do some crafts or play some board games. Keep their minds working and limit TV. Good luck! I wish you well.
little games like chutes and ladders are fun. playing hide and seek or playoutside is always fun. You can also do crafts with paint of playdoh or just plain coloring.
maybe some board games.
video games.
arts and crafts.
really funny movie.
play something like ”lets see who has the best joke to say or who can guess who i am and pretend ur a monkey or something” jsut do somehting to make them laugh and not be bored.
go to a pool, and if he can’t swim, get one of those lounge chairs for the pool…. he’ll love it!
crafts, sprinklers… ect.

my year old have a fever of .?

If your other child had the virus, then it's very likely that the baby has it too. You can use pedialyte or any electrolyte solution to keep the baby from getting dehydrated. Try putting some in a medicine dropper and giving it every minutes when he's awake. Infant tylenol will help with the fever and any pain he's in. Call your doctor for the correct dosage. Usually if the baby is weaned, you should stay away from milk for a day or two. If he's breastfed, you can usually continue as normal. Dry snacks and bananas can help with diarrhea if that happens.

What else can I do to help her?
Answers Favorite Answer*Dairy can actually 'plug up' a child more. So if she has a lot of yogurt or cheese frequently,I'd cut some of that out of her diet for now. Other than that. Increase the amount of FRUIT you're giving her. There is far more fiber in the flesh and peel of fruits than in juice. Juice in all honesty is flavored sugar water with vitamin c. That is unless you fresh squeeze all of the juice you give her. And that is not the easiest for most of us who are busy! Soft fruits high in Fiber :-Apples-Avocado-Bananas (this one surprises most people)-Berries ; strawberries,raspberries,blueberries etc-Dried fruits ; Figs, Raisins, Apricots, Dates, etc.-Oranges-Pears-Prunes (actually at the bottom of the 'highest fiber fruits' list)yes more liquids, try a small amount of prune juice, please skip suppositories, any un-needed medications are not good for young children / babies, they can cause harm in the long run. Does baby go daily? Also what foods you are feeding be sure they are age appropriate!Have you ever spoken to a pediatric gastroenterologist about it?I have a feeling you may be giving too much juice.prun juice helps and massaging her belly with baby oil Read more
