When my children are poorly, I set up a day bed on the settee.
I fetch the children's pillows and cover from their bed and recreate the bed, but on the settee. I prop them up nicely, as they lay on the settee watching any film or YouTube channel of their choice.
Plenty of snuggles and me constantly asking "are you okay?", "would you like anything?" over and over lol.
If my children have colds, they will snuggle up with a warm hot chocolate to drink.
lots of snuggles, wrapped up warm, a duvet day is always good. Regular use of Honey and snuffle babe is a must, make a chicken soup and try to give as much fluid as possible
Cuddles and herbal tea.they drinking warm lemon water every 15-30min even if that's only one sip. Chest and back massage to help lungs. Also I am making honey, lemon and garlic water and giving table spoon of this liquid every morning to boost system.
a nice steamy bath and then warm drink and a good snuggle up together whilst reading a book or watching a film, Plus something to eat that they consider a treat
I steam up the bathroom by running a bath and keeping the door closed. I also put some children’s olbas oil in a bowl with some warm water. It always clears and soothes my son. Then it snuggles in front of the Tv on the sofa.
Have vaporiser in the room, encourage sips of fluid, encourage them to eat chicken soup, melon and ice cream, tv or simple games to keep them occupied and lots of cuddles and reassurance.
