Mommy's Under the Weather Activity

Last week when we came home from our weekend in Wisconsin Dells, I started to feel under the weather. As the week went on, I felt worse. The kids were getting restless staying inside, so I needed to come up with something they could do where I could lay on the floor or couch.
 
I remembered using up the last of my coffee that morning, so I went and got the big can, the free stickers we had gotten from the YMCA, ribbon, and tape. The kids were going to make a drum! Thankfully, I didn't have a headache with this illness.
 
So we set out on the living room floor to create some fun!
 
Here they are decorating it. Yes Bubba is trying to eat some glue.

Misses making music! Don't mind the mess, remember I was sick.

 

There you have it a cheap activity the kids can do if Mommy needs to rest a bit due to illness or exhaustion.

  2. I was desperate! I needed to stay inside and horizontal, but they were not having that! So the drum came to life.
