With so many of us stuck at home right now, I thought it would be appropriate to compose a post addressing potential activities to engage in to pass the time. Whether you’re quarantining or in self-isolation, hopefully some of my suggestions can have relevance to you and keep you occupied over the next few weeks.
- Catch up on or start a new book or books
- Have a movie marathon
- Binge-watch a show you’ve been wanting to watch for a while
- Depending on the circumstances regarding your own situation (for example, if you’re quarantining with family), spend some quality time with loved ones
- Teach yourself a foreign language
- Clean your house from top to bottom
- Purge your closet
- Call some friends you’ve lost touch with
- Learn how to play an instrument if you’re able to
- Create an at-home gym using things from around the house (for example, cans of food to be used as lighter weights, bungee chords to be used as resistance bands)
- Catch up on sleep
- Teach yourself how to cook something you’ve always wanted to make
- Try meal prepping
- Stock up on your online shopping purchases if necessary
- Research a topic you’ve always been interested in learning more about
- Catch up on bills and/or payments
- Spend some time with your pets if you have them
- Check out some of the online museum tours we’ve been hearing about
- Take some organizational initiative and tidy up any messy areas in your home
- Engage in some serious self-care; give yourself a manicure or pedicure, have a nice soak in a bubble bath, etc.
- Make a personalized playlist to tune into
- Make some DIY facemasks and/or hair masks
- Play some classic board games
- Try yoga
These a few of my own personal suggestions for things to do while stuck indoors. Don’t be afraid to get creative!
