Occupy my toddler at home when I'm ill

I'm unwell with chest infection. My husband had taken the leave he could but had to go back to work tomorrow. I have a nine month old and a three year old to occupy when I can hardly speak and cant leave the house. I need to get through the next three days with them at home til the weekend. Any ideas how to occupy the (wild) toddler with little effort from me as I'm shattered - other than tv and dvd which we will be doing!

Let them try on your old makeup
Then
Bubble bath
Then
Snack
Then
Tv
Then
Simon Says
Then
Lunch
Then
Give them the tablet in bed while you lie down (or nap, if they'll nap)
Then
Make them be a puppy, you lie on the sofa feeding imaginary puppy treats and lobbing a soft toy for them to catch
Then
Snack
Then
Colouring and puzzles at the table
Then
Cbeebies

Hahahaaaaaa thank you for the list! Little madam was behaving badly so I said no ipad tomorrow in our rest time and cursed myself as I said it.
