Fun family activities to do at home!
We can understand that it can be quite difficult to keep your family occupied whilst being at home. So we have come up with some great ideas for all of the family to get involved in.
Camping in the great indoors
Gather all the blankets and sheets you can find and put together a fort using the cushions from around the house, tables and chairs. Let them decorate and bring their favourite teddy bears.
Home Cinema
Pick out the family favourite movie, grab the popcorn and sit down and watch a movie at home! Dinsey+ has lots of great family favourites.

Design your very own treasure hunt for your children to get involved in, hide riddles and clues around the house which will lead to a treat at the end.
Ready…Steady…Bake!
Get out the aprons and cookbooks and cook some delicious treats, get your children involved in the creative baking!
Indoor Picnic
Put together some sandwiches and your children’s favourite snacks, put down a blanket with plates and napkins and gather round! Cuddly toys and dolls also make great guests.
Plastic Bottle Bowling
Using old plastic bottles and a tennis ball, make a bowling lane in your house and see who can knock down the most bottles!
