How to Have More Fun at Home…

Posted on December 4, 2020December 4, 2020 by Family Four Fun

As many families will have spent much of the year at home, each member might have settled into a routine and started living separate lives under the same roof. If this is the case, you must look for activities that will unite your family and allow you to spend more quality time together.

To encourage your kids to step away from the TV or a video game, read these 5 ideas on how to have more fun at home.

1. Set-Up a Games Room

If your teen barely looks up from their smartphone to talk to you or your kids are too busy watching cartoons to answer a question, you must attempt to encourage them away from their devices.

A games room could be the solution you need, as they will be happy to step away from the sofa to play a game of pool or air hockey. It is an ideal option if you have an empty garage or a spare bedroom going to waste. Of course, you’ll want a games room to stand the test of time, which is why you should look for a brand that provides high-quality pool tables, such as homeleisuredirect.com.

2. Get Crafting

Encourage your kids to unleash their creativity by sitting down for a fun day of crafting. There are many projects you can tackle, such as:

  • Creating personalised photo frames
  • Scrapbooking
  • Drawing pictures
  • Painting an object
  • Decorating a gingerbread house

Crafting could keep the kids entertained for hours and strengthen your bond. Plus, they’ll create a keepsake from the fun-filled day, which they can treasure as they grow older.

3. Play Board Games

Discover the most competitive member of your family by playing board games together, which are always perfect for a wet and windy day. You can guarantee there will be one family member who will take a game rather seriously and another who will cheat to reign supreme.

Stuck for board game ideas? The above options are ideal for all the family:

  • Monopoly
  • Scrabble
  • Hungry Hippos
  • Frustration
  • Twister
  • Snakes and Ladder

4. A Game of Football

If you have plenty of space in your garden for a game of football, gather the clan together, lace up your trainers and have a little fun outside. It is a great way to encourage the kids to enjoy some fresh air and it will get their body moving and heart pumping.

If you are taking a game seriously, you will need the following football equipment:

  • A high-quality football
  • Two goals
  • Marker cones

5. Bake Together

Kids love to get their hands a little messy in the kitchen, which is why baking is a fun activity they are bound to enjoy. You can guarantee they will love making cake batter and watching it rise in the oven or you could make pizza dough together and enjoy a delicious slice with a family-friendly film. It’s one day your kids are bound to remember when they look back on the year.
