I don’t know where you’re from, but where I live, it’s been raining pretty much every day of Spring so far. There have been a few sunny days, but my niece and nephew get tired of being cooped up in the house and watching TV after maybe a day or two. So, I’m always trying to think of new things for us to do- that DON’T involve phones, tablets, or TV screens. That’s why I love this list by Lisa Jacobson at Club31 Women! Here are some awesome ideas for screen-free indoor activities:
-Play a game of hide and seek
-Cook a meal together
–Make sparkly playdough and then play with it, or any other craft! Get on Pinterest- there are a MILLION cool crafts for kids.
-Read a good book
-Built a fort together
-Draw, paint, or color
When I was little, I was obsessed with rocks and crystals. One of my most valued possessions was one of those crystal point necklaces, and that obsession has only escalated. I like to decorate my home now with amethyst clusters and other polished stones. Needless to say, when I was younger, I thought that rock candy was the most beautiful food that existed… but I never tried making it myself (I’m not a patient person, hahaha). However, it is super easy! Growing your own rock candy with your kids is a fun, gorgeous science experiment- perfect for a rainy day. Check out this post by 
One thing I love to do in my spare time is make my own soap. I love being able to customize the scents, color, and ingredients. Plus, they make great gifts, and the bars tend to last a lot longer than a bottle of body wash. I’ve also made my own bath bombs a few times! While I don’t take baths often, when I do, I love using those fizzy, luxurious smelling bath bombs.
