Crackers are a good starting point, just be sure to give them really small amounts and wait a while to see if it's going to stay down. Push the juice as it's so important for them to stay hydrated with the vomiting and fever. You can also get suppositories called "fever all" that are like tylenol but you have to put them up their butt if they have high fevers. This is to help keep their fever down without upsetting their stomachs.

Its safe and also helps stop diareah if they have it. Otherwise we ate strawberries and popsicles and we couldnt eat anything else. It sucks. Good Luck
