You can get those nifty knitter things that you make hats and scarves out of using yarn. They are easy to do and your daughter actually might like to make some too for her friends. I sometimes will take mine with me when my husband has a doctors appointment that takes time. I have also taken a quilt with me that needed the binding sewn on and I do that mostly.
I really don't have many ideas. But I am sure that others will have lots of ideas.
