Have a Friend That Is Bedridden? Skip Balloons and Get These Gifts
Do you know someone who will be bedridden for a few weeks or months, and you are trying to look for ways to cheer them up? There are a lot of things they can do to get their mind off the fact that they are stuck in bed for whatever reason, and they can get their mind lost in something else. You want to get them something that they can engage in and to get them thinking. Here are a few of the options that you can look into, and that you can purchase for them.
Games
There are many games that require time and skill to learn, like chess, black jack, and others. Get the person a book on how to play the game, and that includes what all the tips and tricks are. Once they learn how to play, they can play with you, with other family and friends, or against other people online. This is a great way for them to gain a new hobby, find something they are talented at doing, and to help the time pass while having fun.
DVD Series
If they are into a certain type of television genre or if you know if a good series you think they would enjoy, buy a DVD series online and take it over or have it shipped to their home. If the series was on a paid cable channel they don't have, or it's a documentary about something that they like, then this will be an easy way for them to get distracted. Check out retailers like Pristine Sales to find series they might like.
Book Series
Not just one single book, but an entire book series, is a great way for someone to pass a lot of time. Often it can be difficult when you want to get through a series of books when you are busy with life, work, and other things. Since they are already stuck in bed, they will be able to read at their own pace and get through the books as quickly as they want.
If someone you know is bedridden, don't get them flowers or balloons. Instead, get them something that is entertaining. That way, they can be distracted and stop paying attention to their disease or injury, and that they will be thankful for as they take the time they need to heal or rest in bed.
