Explanation:
1. These activities will make the administration easier.
2. This would not be appropriate as it increases the volume that must be administered and may unfavorably change the taste of the drink.
3. The child is more willing to take the medication from the mother.
4. This would not be appropriate.
5. This could cause the child to choke on the medication and is inappropriate.
