Keeping 2 year old entertained while I have covid

I tested positive for the second time on Sunday, I'm feeling quite poorly with it but I have my two year old at home with me. I struggled to even move from the sofa yesterday and felt so guilty on him, how can I keep him happy and entertained without me really having to move?

Lots of Tv. Limiting screen time goes out the window when parents are poorly imo.

lots of toys out.

quick and easy foods and snacks! If you have someone to get a few bits things like lunchables, cooked sausage rolls, yoghurts anything already cooked and packaged ready to eat basically.

I wasn't too poorly with covid and was doing most of daily tasks but once I had this hideous sickness bug, my kids were feral for s couple days (they had it, got better, then I got it). They just stayed in their pjs all day, ate lunchables, worksite and watched Tv and iPads all day and I didn't feel bad about it!

This! Do what you need to do to get by and wish you better soon.

Thankyou! I'm not a stay in the house kind of person so I'm feeling particularly guilty that we haven't been anywhere.
