Cheap Ways to Keep Yourself Entertained If You’re Stuck at Home!

April 16, 2020 by Fru-gal Leave a Comment

Cheap Ways to Keep Yourself Entertained If You’re Stuck at Home

If you’re stuck at home nowadays, then it’s essential that you find ways to entertain yourself that are both fun and affordable. This is especially important as worries about the economy continue to grow and companies lose business, forcing them to make layoffs.

If you’re in a desperate situation then consider getting in touch with Credit Canada credit counselling services for help during these trying times. They will be able to offer you debt assistance and practical money advice, just like these cheap (and mostly free) ideas for keeping yourself entertained while stuck at home.

Read or Listen to an Audiobook

Now’s the time to read that book you’ve been meaning to get to for such a long time. That or consider re-reading a book you’ve already enjoyed – it can be fun to revisit a favourite again with a different perspective.

If you’re out of reading material then consider listening to some free audiobooks. There are websites that can connect you to free audiobooks that are in the public domain, or you can even find some listings on YouTube. You may also want to try OverDrive, a website that partners with local libraries to provide people with access to a ton of free ebook and audiobook content.

Play Board Games

If you’re stuck indoors with the kids and/or your partner, then why not play some good old fashioned board games? Don’t worry if you don’t have any (or many) board games to choose from. You can actually download and print some board games for free – check out this list for some suggestions on where to find free print and play games.

Do Arts and Crafts

Another great activity to do with the kids (though possibly messy), is setting up some arts and crafts. Even if you don’t have any kids, this could be the time to get crafty and stretch your creative muscles. You can easily find suggestions online and many of them only require materials that you will already have around the house.

Binge Watch TV Shows

Sometimes all you want to do is sit back and relax, and binge-watching a good television series is often one of the ways people like to do just that. Don’t have a Netflix subscription? No problem – there are websites where you can legally watch TV shows for free.

Even though they are usually older shows, it’s still worth the watch. You can either find something new or one of your classic favourites. For example, Crackle has classic (and not-so classic) shows like:

  • Bewitched
  • All in the Family
  • 3rd Rock from the Sun
  • Jackie Chan Adventures
  • Just Shoot Me
  • Roseanne
  • I Dream of Jeannie

It’s definitely worth taking a look!

Get Some Fresh Air

Even if you’re stuck inside, don’t be afraid to take a walk every once in a while. Not only is it good exercise, but it is also important for your health to get some fresh air.
