Raining outside? Stuck at home? Try these creative indoor activities
Is it raining outside and you are stuck at home? Don't worry! Instead of feeling bored, you can have lots of fun doing activities indoors. Even if your outdoor plans got canceled, there are plenty of things you can do inside to keep yourself entertained. Whether you are alone or with your family, these ideas will help you have a great time this monsoon.
Make a DIY rain gauge
Grab an empty plastic bottle and cut off the top. Flip it upside down and tape it securely to the bottle, creating a rain-catching funnel. Put pebbles or sand in the bottom to keep it steady outside. Leave it out in the rain and watch the water collect. Use a ruler and marker to measure the amount of rainfall.
Click photographs of rain-soaked landscapes
Take out your camera and start clicking amazing photos of landscapes drenched in rain. Look for raindrops on leaves, people finding shelter, or anything else that catches your attention. The way rain makes everything look truly beautiful, you can capture that beauty in your pictures. Don't miss this chance to take amazing photos to later print and hang them in your home gallery.
Cook up a storm on your balcony
Who says you need to wait for perfect weather to enjoy delicious grilled treats? Gather your family together and make it a fun-filled activity that everyone can participate in. Just make sure your balcony is safe for grilling and be careful while firing up coal. Enjoy the cozy feeling of the rain while you cook and savor tasty barbecue dishes.
Make a paper boat
Take a nostalgic trip back to your childhood by revisiting the joy of making paper boats. All you need is a piece of paper and a few simple folds to transform it into a sturdy paper boat. Release your boat into a pit filled with rainwater right outside your doorstep. Watch as it gracefully sails away and imagine all the adventures it could have.
Have a water fight
Grab some water balloons and squirt guns and get ready for a splash-tastic time! Since everyone is already drenched in rain, it is the perfect chance to have some fun with water. Fill up water balloons, grab your squirt gun, and let the water battle begin. Run around, try to dodge the water, and make awesome memories right in your own backyard or terrace.
