Frugal indoor fun for kids

Is it too hot, cold, rainy, snowy, windy, any or all of the above for you outside? Some days, you just want to stay in. Here are some ways to liven up a day inside to keep yourself and your kids entertained without too much mind numbing television.

Make an obstacle course

Build forts with furniture, sheets and pillows

Make a hopscotch board with painters tape

Do scavenger hunts around the house

Play hide n go seek (this works really well if you find a really great spot and bring a magazine and relax while hiding)

Stage storytime in the playroom

Do puppet shows

Do art projects - paint, color, cut, glue, create

Have an indoor picnic
