Practicing social distancing means spending a lot of time at home, trying to adhere to safety guidelines and protocols. It can be difficult finding things to do at home. However, it is also the perfect time to take the best care of yourself, find your hidden talents, reorganize your home, and enjoy every hour at home. You can have a lot of fun when you are with your loved ones.
Here are several things you can do to keep yourself busy and entertain your kids:
Gather some firewood and the things you will need for a good old fashioned campfire. Roast some hot dogs and break out the s' mores! Sit around the campfire with some cold beverages and just enjoy one another's company.
Go through your old pictures and mementos. It’s a great time to get your wedding portrait framed in a beautiful frame. Look back on fond memories and tell your children stories from when you were their age. Share the world you grew up in and answer their questions.
You do not have to leave the house to go on a date. Cook your own dinner and find a good movie to watch. Whether you do it as a couple or as a family, it is always a fun time when you get to just kick back and relax.
Let your competitive side shine. Break out the board games or a couple decks of cards. Pick two or three games you really enjoy and then start a marathon. Go as long as you can and see how much fun you can have trying to outdo one another.
Storytime is a great way to occupy the kids. You can choose to read a book or two or share your own stories. Tell your kids about some of your favorite experiences when you were growing up. Truth can be stranger than fiction, and in most cases, it is a lot more fun.
Find some old odds and ends or a piece of furniture you would like to repurpose and spend a few hours doing arts and crafts. Drawing, sewing, stenciling, or painting are all great ways to pass time.
Children can create gifts for grandparents and you can make some pretty décor items for your home. Let those creative juices flow and make something fun and unique!
You worked hard to earn your diplomas. If they are still in the shipping tubes or the closet, it is the perfect time to get them framed. Explore the predesigned diploma frames and choose the one that best suits your style or easily customize one according to your preferences.
If the old frames are out of style or just do not do your degree justice, get a frame that will make it stand out. After you renovate or redecorate, your old frame may be out of place. Find a new diploma frame that makes a statement and show off your pride!
You do not have to be bored while you are practicing social distancing. Take a few minutes and create a few activities that will make time fly by! It is not hard trying to find things to do at home if you just look around.
