Do you have a sick toddler in the house and looking for some ways to entertain and make him feel at least a little better?
I gathered some of our favorite sick day activities for toddlers that we do when we have some sick ones in the house.
While all these activities are fun and entertaining, keep in mind that the best 'medicine' when your child is not feeling great is a lot of kisses, hugs and just cozy snuggles on the couch.
If a lot of love is given and you guys are up for some more fun, try out these fun activities.
