Have you seen the various "Way to Entertain Your Kid While Lying Down" posts? I've seen a few on Pinterest and some on other parenting blogs. At first I thought we we're all just getting a bit lazy. Then, I got sick. Now I see the beauty in biding your time with a few of these activities so that you can get some rest.
This morning Max really wanted to play and I really wanted to rest. So I made him a simple 'ribbon dancer', turned on some music and let him get that energy out!

materials:
ribbon/strips of cloth
wooden spoon/spatula
get to work:
1. Take the strips of ribbon/cloth and tie it to the spoon.
2. Give your child the spoon and turn on a little music.
3. Sit back and relax.
