Recovery from surgery can be tough, especially for those with young children. You may be hesitant to undergo a Mommy Makeover because of the extensive recovery time. We understand that, as a mother, your children are your number one priority. However, you can still recover from a Mommy Makeover properly while talking to your children.
Here are some easy, laid back activities you can do with your kids while recovering from a Mommy Makeover.
1. Do a Puzzle
Kids love puzzles, and you can find one for all ages. Depending on the number of pieces, puzzles can take a while. This will give you ample time to lay on the couch while your kids sit and master the puzzle. Puzzles aren’t messy, and they promote problem-solving skills, hand-eye coordination, and concentration. Kids will be learning, staying quiet, and having fun while doing it.
2. Movie Days
Movies are always a fun treat for children, and they will take up a large part of your day. Now, with all of the streaming services available, you have almost every movie at your fingertips. Curl up on the couch with your kids, put on their favorite movie, and relax. They may even fall asleep, and you will have even more downtime.
3. Coloring
Coloring is a fun, relaxing activity for all ages. You can get cheap coloring books from the store, or you can print fun coloring pages from your own home. One of the main benefits of coloring is that it is not as messy as painting. Kids can be creative while not making too much of a mess. If you feel up for it, you can even join them and color a page for yourself.
4. Board Games
Many board games are suitable for all ages, and playing them with your children can be an easy, relaxing way to keep them entertained and occupied. Board games often don’t require a lot of effort and are generally mess-free. It is an even better option if you have more than one child since they can play together while you rest and relax.
5. Card Games
Playing card games with your children while recovering from a Mommy Makeover is a fun and easy option to keep your kids busy. There are even some card games that can be played solo if you only have one kid. Card games are also a cheap option since you can play many different games with only one deck of cards.
