It’s important that you protect yourself and others from getting sick by following your doctor’s and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendations. Preventing exposure to the virus is your best defense. This means staying home!
Here are some ideas to keep you busy while spending time indoors.
Do Some Spring Cleaning
Spring has sprung! Use this time to get started on your seasonal cleaning. This spring ritual is important for various reasons. It keeps your family safe from germs and your indoor space free of mold and dust, which trigger allergies and cause other sicknesses. When cleaning and disinfecting your home, pay special attention to high-traffic areas. Disinfect high-touch surfaces like door handles, light switches and countertops.
Spring cleaning doesn’t have to feel like a chore. Get your family involved and make it fun! Give these ideas a try:
- Blast your favorite music. Singing and dancing your way through your home will make the cleaning fly by!
- Race the clock. Set a timer to clean up a room or to complete a specific task. Then try to get it done before time runs out.
- Listen to podcasts or audiobooks. Pick books you’ve wanted to read but haven’t had the time to enjoy.
- Create a competition. Come up with silly contests, such as who can clean the dirtiest spot, complete a chore the fastest or find the most lost socks.
Take Up an Exercise Regimen
Did you know 30 to 60 minutes of daily exercise is recommended to stay healthy? It also helps you combat cabin fever. While going to the gym right now is off the table, there are still plenty of ways you can be active, such as taking your dog for a walk while practicing social distancing, creating an obstacle course inside your home or searching the Internet for online workout classes.
Get Creative!
Is there a craft or DIY project you’ve always wanted to do? If you need an idea, check out Pinterest. You’re bound to find something that will get your creativity flowing.
Teach Yourself Something New
Whether it’s a hobby or an instrument, everyone has something they always wanted to learn. Now is the time to do it. Search the Internet for online tutorials or how-to videos.
