Kids have cabin fever HELP

Sooner or later the weather outside is going to get to the point that the kids can't go out to play. So it's up to you to cure the cabin fever, they may have. After all you don't want to hear every five minutes I'm bored. Get ready, get set and know how to cure the inevitable cabin fever.

Here are some ideas. How about setting a time during the day to do one of these things with the kids. Bake, cook something together, crafts, puzzles, word games, board games.

If you have room in your basement or garage, why not bring in and set up any outdoor toys and make a play area. This will keep them busy by them selves.

Set up some play dates with their friends. Yours to, kill two birds with one stone.

Doing some exercises together is an other way to pass the time. And it gets you and the kids healthy.

In the basement or garage use some painters tape and make hop scotch.

There are also things for the kids to do at your local home improvement stores. They have kid friendly projects. Also check out your local library, and craft stores for some kid friendly things to do.

If you belong to a gym, check and see if there are any class's you and your child can take together.

Go window shopping at the mall, let them peek in the windows and go window shopping with you. Then stop and have lunch.

How about a treasure hunt in the house.

If you have pets, how about teaching your pets some new tricks.

Balloons can be a life saver to, you can use them for indoor volley ball, or other games.

Have fun
