While everyone is stuck at home right now with nothing to do, and you have finished binging everything on Netflix, here are 10 ideas to keep you entertained. Or at least busy.

Do a Workout

While sitting at home eating all your snacks, try to find an at-home workout to do. The best part, no one is around to watch you struggle.

Try a New Hobby

Get into that one thing you have always wanted to try out, but never had any time for.

Dye Your hair

Don’t go crazy with any wild colors or anything. Start out with a small strand or a natural color. Keep in mind however that it will cost a lot of money to fix if you mess up.

Read a Book

Find a book you enjoy and start reading. Don’t like to read? Pick up a comic book or a picture book.

Do a Puzzle

Puzzles are always the go-to when bored indoors. They can take up quite a chunk of time if you choose a hard enough puzzle with enough pieces.

Have a Spa Day

Bring out the face masks and nail files. Treat yourself to a nice pampering.

Organize

Go through your closet and declutter your clothes. Organize your tupperware in the kitchen. Put away those items that don’t seem to have a place.

Try Out a New Recipe

Never really learned how to cook? Well now is your chance! Pick up that recipe you have always wanted to try, and feed yourself.

Write a Short Story

Come up with a wild story and write it down in great detail. Go a step further and play out your story in The Sims or with some puppets!

Homework

This is the last thing I want to do right now, but also the most important. Catch up on your homework and maybe even get ahead. That way you don’t have to worry about it for a while.

These days are just gonna fly by…
