Ways to Stay Busy at Home

Try Something New

• Try a new recipe to cook or bake
• Learn a new language
• Learn how to play an instrument
• Learn a dance
• Pick up a new hobby – scrapbooking, sewing, there are many ideas you can find on the internet!
• Try new hairstyles and makeup tutorials
• Start a blog
• Start a garden
• Teach your pet new tricks
• Try a new and creative date or family activity – I recently purchased The Adventure Challenge Book, Couples Edition. It is a book full of many creative dates for you and your significant other. The catch? You don’t know what the date is until you scratch it off! Each one has an estimated time and price, when the best time of day to do it is, and hints to what the date will be. They also have Family and Friend additions, so everyone can get involved. You can find more fun date ideas just by searching online.
