Lisa have fun! My middle dd, now 26, had chiken pox when she was 4 and had them so bad that she couldn't even wear panties. I put a one piece slip on her and laid her on the couch. When she needed to potty I'd carry her in and back to the couch again. She had a terrific tolerance for pain and itch though so did great in that respect. (She had surgery to repair a blockage in her aorta 2 weeks before her 3rd birthday and never cried, even after coming out of anesthesia!)
If your dd gets too itchy, you may want to try some SARNA lotion. It's available at Wal Mart in the pharmacy. It's not a prescription but they do keep it behind the counter, maybe because it's a bit pricey. It's almost $10 for a bottle but it works fabulously. I was going through a hormonal itch problem on my arms a short while back and a friend told me aobut it. She may have saved my sanity since I had done this years ago for almost a YEAR and still can't figure out how my arms and mind survived in tact. This lotion can cool almost any itch off.
Anna when I was a kid the lady up the street from us would set up a table in her front yard on Halloween and hand out cups of soda. We LOVED her and called her "The Soda Lady" and we always made a beeline to her house. You brought back some wonderful memories!
