Chronic Illness and the Family: A Guide to Living Every Day Book

"Do you have an egg carton candy? An old magazine? What about some toilet paper rolls or a cardboard box?"

We've all had those days when our kids lay around complaining, "I'm bored..." "There's nothing to do..." Or we reach the point where we are ready to do something other than watch TV and play video games.

This book is set up in such a fun way. At the beginning of the book there are thumbnail illustrations with a title and page number for each activity. This makes it easy for the kids to go through and choose activities that look fun.

Once you turn to the page there is a description of the activity with any instructions as well as a list of required materials.

Not all of the activities are awesome, but there are a lot of new ideas and great boredom busters. We've had a lot of fun with this book. I find myself wishing that I had a copy of my own and didn't have to take this one back to the library.
