What can you do to keep children from getting bored at home? 5 original ideas:
You can’t always go out or go on an excursion, there are weekends when you simply don’t feel like going out or unforeseen events appear that make you postpone the planned plans. Don’t worry, Casualplay has compiled 5 ideas to entertain children and keep them from getting bored at home.
1. Camping in the living room
Help yourself to the broomstick, dining room chairs, and old sheets, and create a tent. You can play Indians and cowboys, talk in an invented language and why not have lunch on the floor. And if you want to fight a big battle… pillow war.

2. Invite a friend or friends to spend the day at home.
For parents who do not want to complicate because the children themselves will find the game they like. You just have to let them enjoy, set some limits, and don’t miss the food. Ideal if you want to take advantage of the time to do your things, and take a look from time to time. Besides, I’m sure the parents of the little friend will thank you infinitely.
3. Cineclub
Oh, no… it’s not just watching a movie and that’s it. First we need the poster and the tickets, a craft that will take them a long time. Once the programming is done, all that remains is to prepare the popcorn or the children’s favorite snack minutes before. At the end you can comment on it, which character you liked the most, at what moment you laughed the most, or comment on an emotional scene.
4. Cooking
For risky moms and dads who don’t mind the kitchen being a bit messy 😉
It is important that children gradually begin to get to know the kitchen environment and value food. Think about what recipe you want to teach them, we recommend something they can participate in. Some cookies, a sponge cake …, and they will not hesitate to collaborate if they can eat it at the end. It will be not only a playful activity but also a learning activity.
5. Crafts
Are you handyman and have plenty of imagination?… you’re going to love it!
If you are one of those who have a kitchen cupboard full of dry pasta, and you also have no shortage of sewing thread and the essential white glue, you have it all! Costume jewellery, and frames for the whole family.
