Toddlers with fever

My two year old DS has a 103 fever and obviously feels like crap, poor guy. All he wants to do is watch movies and I'm letting him. It kills me to just have him sit in front of the tv all day.

We've read books and he took a nap. He had some juice and crackers. He's not interested in toys or play doh. What do you do with your toddlers when they are this sick?

    What do I do? Survive. For real... We do whatever keeps her happy. She can eat whatever she wants (within reason) and do whatever she wants. She doesn't have much of an attention span for TV, but will sit still for 20-30 minutes for Elmo because he's her favorite. We read a lot of books. We play with her Little People sets, do puzzles, and draw with crayons. I'll make some comfort food... I just aim to survive the day, haha.

    Thanks ladies. I just put in a Clifford the dog movie. It's all he can do to even sit up, so TV it is.

    I allow my kid to watch as much TV as she wants when she's sick, always have.  I want to do nothing when I'm sick, neither does she.  iPad and TV! Whatever will help keep her in a chair and resting, I actually prefer that.
