Binge-watch your favorite film or series.

Everyone loves to binge-watch their favorite movie or series. And these rainy days are the perfect time to spend a cozy evening with your friends or family and enjoy some quality time together. When planning a movie marathon, there are several things to consider in order to make it an enjoyable experience: picking the right movies, snacks recipes, decorations, and more. You can set up a home cinema in your living room with just your couch, some mats, pillows, or sleeping bags. You can also have your older children prepare some delicious snacks while you and the younger kids decide on what to watch first.

 

 

Hold an indoor treasure hunt.

Most kids love challenges and adventures so they'll surely love a fun treasure hunt. Spice things up by creating a story and giving them an easy-to-understand map with the parts of your home. They can also play dress up to get more into their treasure hunter role. You can reuse cardboard boxes and turn them into treasure chests filled with new toys or treats.

 

 

Amaze them with cool science experiments.

You can also turn fun activities into educational opportunities with easy and safe science experiments. You can create color-changing potions, bouncy eggs, water walking, lava lamps, and mini volcano eruptions. Most of the things you need are super easy to find and the instructions are free printable or searchable on the internet.

 

 

Set up an indoor obstacle course.

A hallway laser maze is also a fun activity for your kids to explore. It's super simple to do with painter's tape or masking tape as streamers taped across your hallway. This can be a challenging game for kids of all ages; simply adjust the distance between the steamers to try to get through. You can modify the course to make it easier or more difficult for your children.



You can also turn your living room into a mini obstacle course with different games in every station. You can add popping balloons, one-minute hula hoops, and jump ropes that will help your kids and even teens burn tons of energy.

 

 

Create a book nook.

If you have bookworm kids, they will surely appreciate a cozy book nook where they can read a favorite book on a rainy day. All you need is a large box to which you can add pillows and blankets to make it warm and inviting. It is surely the perfect place to read and enjoy a good book.

 

 

Sweat it up with an indoor dance party.

Make your own playlists of songs you like. Make it more fun by choosing 5 songs that each of you enjoys, add them all to your playlist, then put it on shuffle and have a house disco. Create your own dance floor by repositioning some of your furniture. It's a great way to get some physical exercise on a rainy day, and you could also use your playlist for limbo dancing, musical statues, best and worst dancer competitions, and a variety of other fun indoor activities for kids.

 

 

Teach your kids how to bake.

Baking is also a fun rainy-day activity that you and your kids can enjoy. You can find cookbooks in your local bookstore and try easy-to-bake recipes like chocolate chip cookies or cupcakes. You can add fun things to your baking by using cookie cutters or letting your kids add their favorite snacks like mini marshmallows and colored sprinkles.

 

 

Take out your old pictures and albums.

Kids enjoy looking at old photos and hearing stories, so dig out those photo albums and take a look back in time and share the stories behind each picture. You can also let your kids build their own collages or photo album. Let them choose their own photos for it so they can express themselves by decorating the covers and pages of their own albums.
