INDOOR FAMILY GAMES

Stay at home orders are hard on everyone, since you have children at home during this time, I thought you might enjoy some different activities to occupy their time and to take advantage of your extra family quality time.

 

 

Indoor Family Games

 

• Try one of these five Thinking games, which  are a fun way to pass the time and can be played instantly.

• Play Mad Libs! My kids and I like to play this at the dinner table.

• Start a drawing game. One person starts by drawing a shape on a piece of paper and passing it to the next player, who adds to it. Keeping passing around the drawing until everyone has a turn (if it’s a large group), or for a predetermined number of times (if it’s a small group). This can be played with as many players as you wish.

• Play hide and seek. It’s not just for kids! Kids love to find the grown-ups!

• Try a pencil and paper game, like Dots and Boxes. (<— There’s a video with instructions in that post.)

• Play hot potato.

• Play an old school game of  spoons!

• Play Simon Says.

• Play a guessing game: put an assortment of items on a tray, everyone tries to memorize the items. Everyone closes their eyes then one person removes a few items and players try to guess what was removed. I even have tons more memory games ideas.

• Everyone has a deck of cards. Try one of these 40 games to play with cards!

• Do you have an overflow of paper cups? Divide into teams and see who can make the highest tower without it falling over.

• Set up dominoes to make a domino run!

• Play simple Minute To Win It style games.

• Pull out a 1000 piece puzzle. If you have room, set up several puzzles for different skill levels.
