Not the same I know, but, If a child forgets kit at my school we get them to watch but alsoto writew about what the other children are doing. They also draw pictures. (especially if SEN)

upper body work, but maybe with H & S she may not be able to join in

Head and neck exercises. Work on the shoulders to maintain correct position of spine as she will be sitting a lot. Why don't you ring Physio Dept they might send you some exercise sheets.

Was also going to suggest ball skills.

Also depending on what doing they can be actively involved with keeping scores, etc. If outdoors, they could be involved in races, if you have enough open space, they would still be able to race along in their wheelchair.
