Quarantine Activities

As everyone is trapped inside for the next couple of weeks due to the coronavirus, we're faced with restlessness and boredom. Here are some activities that can hopefully make your days a little more interesting!

Quarantine Activities

1.) Paint by Numbers. Available to buy on Amazon and paintbynumbers.com, paint by numbers is a fun and easy way to kill time and develop your artistic skills.

2.) Become TikTok famous. Learn the dances and follow the strange trends. Watching TikToks can also give you other ideas of what to do during quarantine. I've seen many TikToks about special recipes and art projects that anyone can do!

3.) Read a good book. Usually I'm not an avid reader, but over the past couple of weeks I have been able to read a couple of really great books. Also, you can create a Goodreads account where you can track the books that you have read and get book recommendations.

4.) Watch a good television series. I personally love to watch docu-series when I have a lot of time on my hands. At the moment, I recommend watching Tiger King or Jailbirds, both available on Netflix.

5.) Learn something new. With the extra time on your hands you can start to learn a new language or learn how to play an instrument.

6.) Hone your cooking or baking skills. Spice up the kitchen with some new recipes; there are thousands of recipes available for anyone to use online!

7.) Scrapbook. We are a part of a very historically important time right now. Taking photographs and journaling is a good way to document what is happening so you can remember it and look back years from now when you are no longer quarantined!

8.) Reach your health goals. With the time to prepare healthier meals and exercise, being quarantined could be the opportunity to achieve your health goals that always got put on the back burner.

9.) Read the News. I think trying to stay informed and aware about the world right now is important in light of the pandemic.

10.) Keep in Touch with Friends and Family. If being isolated means that you are separated from loved ones, make sure to keep in touch.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
