How do you amuse a 3 year old with a broken leg (not ds)

Does anyone have any suggestions for keeping a 3 year old with a broken leg amused?

My ds's best friend broke her leg on Tuesday and can't weight bear at the moment, so is stranded on the sofa and it is going to drive her and her parents crazy as she is usually a very active toddler.

Needless to say my ds doesn't have a clue how to sit and play with her as they normally charge around like mad things when they are together!

Can she sit at a table with her leg on a chair and do painting/play doug type things? Poor little thing

Thanks HunkerMunker, yes, she should be able to do that hopefully. I'll suggest it to her mum.

The best thing is she loves Harry Potter so I think there will be a lot of DVD watching being done!!
