During these really hard times, it’s easy to complain and think about lost time and opportunities to do fun things since we’ve all been quarantined. But if you change your outlook and think about the benefits of staying home and having more time on your hands, then this all doesn’t seem quite so bad! I put together this list of 30 fun things to do during quarantine to help you pass the time in a productive but still fun way.
This time to ourselves is a chance to realign with our purpose in life and to think about what we all really want to do and contribute while we’re on this earth.
So remember that although this time is definitely difficult, there’s always another way to look at things from a positive perspective. Use this time to catch up on anything you’ve been putting off and you’re going to come out on the other end of this so happy, healthy and set up for success!

Lol, let’s just say I’m on the right track considering I’ve pretty much done half of your suggestions under the personal category 😂. These are really great suggestions doll. The ubereats app has saved me while my sink has been broken as we haven’t been able to cook/wash anything. Thanks for sharing, and stay safe!!

I’ve been baking lots and going for walks with my camera. I think with this social distancing thing we just have to think differently with how we spend our time.

These are awesome ideas!! We started a puzzle on day 3!! It took a few days to get into it but it wasn’t long until the whole family was addicted to finishing it. Online classes are another great way to pass the time. Thanks for the link!! Hope you have a terrific weekend!
