Boredom-Busters for Sick Kids
Saturday January 29, 2005
My children's care providers and teachers report that illness is striking the classrooms quicker than you can say, "strep!" and that contagious childhood ailments are thriving at this time of the year. Some classes have had almost a 50 percent absence rate. A few weeks ago, my three children (and me, of course) were stricken, causing the inevitable loss of school, child care, and alas, work time as well. We utilized several of these kid boredom busters while on "sick leave." Now, we're all healthy and I'm trying really hard to keep it that way. It's hard when kids are dropping like flies from stomach bugs and other icky illnesses. I guess you could say that we're a "hand washin' frenzy family!"
