Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, you and your family have been cooped up at home for more than 4 months now. The monotony of doing the same things over and over again is can take its toll on your family. Therefore, it is important to create fun family activities during this time to prevent cabin fever. Here are some suggestions you may want to try out with your family.
Baking
The most popular hobby that people took up during the pandemic is baking. In fact, during the early onset of the pandemic, there was a worldwide shortage of yeast and other baking ingredients.
Baking is also a good activity for picky eaters. Since they will be taking part in the preparation of the food, they will be more likely to eat it. You may want to start with cookies since it is one of the easiest to do and is also a kid’s favorite. For baking newbies, you can just get a prepared mix and have fun with it. You would be amazed at the many goodies you can do with a prepared pancake mix. For those with more experience with baking, you may want to involve your kids with glazed donuts since kneading the dough can be super fun for them. They feel like they are playing with their playdoh.
Science Experiments
You can choose to make the quarantine an opportunity for learning by doing fun science experiments with your kids. Simulate a volcano eruption by using baking soda and vinegar. Launch a rocket with antacids. You can even clean your old coins and silver while making it fun for the kids.
Puppet Shows
You can make use of old socks and turn them into something fun. Make a whole production out of it. Make puppets, design the stage, create props, write a script. You can even play with lighting by using flashlights and cellophane. Unleash the creativity of your kids.
Coding
If your kids just play with their gadgets the whole day, you may want to encourage them to try coding. Instead of just playing games, let them design the game themselves. Some apps make coding easy even for preschoolers while teaching them the basics. There are also toys you can order online that teach your kids how to code.
Virtual Travel
Because of the pandemic, a lot of popular tourist destinations have opened its doors virtually. You can do a walkthrough of the fashionable Metropolitan Museum in New York, USA; the prominent Louvre in Paris, France, and even the impressive Sistine Chapel in Rome, Italy. If you love animals, you can watch Willow the Bunny and Pedro the Sea Lion live at the Singapore Zoo; or spy on the cute Pandas in the Atlanta Zoo. The San Diego Zoo lets you watch a wide array of animals such as the Koala, the Platypus, the Tiger, and even the Polar Bear.
You also get to catch your favorite artist to perform at the comforts of their homes. In recent months, live performances of John Legend, Adam Lambert, Elton John, Jlo, the Rolling Stones, and even the Backstreet Boys were made available. Locally, you were treated to wonderful pieces by Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, and Lea Salonga, while you were also able to witness reunion performances by Smokey Mountain, and 80’s love teams. Theater plays are also being made available virtually now and then as you were able to witness the popular local show Ang Huling El Bimbo, as well as the Tony Award-Winning act, Hamilton.
While living in elegant surroundings like Crown Asia’s Ponticelli in Bacoor, Cavite already lessens the feeling of cabin fever, it is still fun to try out new things during the quarantine. Gather your family around your stylish home and discover something new.
Stay Safe Everyone!
