Activities for children during confinement

Parents who are confined with children at home obviously still have the added handicap that children, and if they are very young even more so, do not understand this situation very well and can have particularly complicated moments and/or days. Isolation , the break with routines , and boredom make the day very complicated .

Apart from the little moments they have to spend doing some homework, eating, bathing and/or watching a movie , we leave you with some ideas to liven up the rest of the day, and try to make it as fun as possible . If they are well, everyone at home will be too.

  • Make a cake or shaped cookies : Making a chocolate cake or making shaped cookies will be a pleasure.
  • Playing tennis : Yes, it is possible if instead of a ball you use a balloon.
  • Put on a play : Invent some characters and a story, with the help of costumes and makeup you will have a great time.
  • Make bracelets or necklaces with pasta: Make some macaroni, paint them and with a little sewing thread, make some bracelets and/or necklaces.
  • Play hide and seek : Just think of places in the house where we can hide!
  • Find a treasure : Hide a treasure and using clues on papers they will have to find the treasure by following each clue.
  • Basketball : Place a wastepaper basket as far away as you can and try to make a basket with paper balls or a small rubber ball!
  • Dancing: Body expression and physical activity during home confinement will release tension. Turn up the music and dance.
  • Bowling : Several bottles of drinks will suffice.
  • Painting with your feet : Try to paint a drawing with your toes.
  • Karaoke : If you have a web TV, you will find videos on YouTube so you can sing songs and have a contest.
  • Drawing blindfolded : The person who has to draw has their eyes covered and the rest tell them what they have to draw. Seeing the result will make you laugh a lot.
  • “Blind Man’s Bluff” : A classic game in which one of the players is blindfolded and must try to catch or find the rest and guess who they have caught.
