If you are stuck indoors, it does not mean that you cannot have active fun with the family. Space might be a constraint, so too much running around the house is out of the picture, but you can still keep everyone active and laughing with simple games that are suitable for the whole family.

As a lead-up or reward to each game, you can prepare some snacks and milk. Milk is a good source of nutrition for active families because it contains important nutrients# like protein, calcium and vitamin A, B2 & D3.

Charades

Does anybody not like charades? This classic game has stood the test of time because there is absolutely no limit to what you can do in it!

If you are unfamiliar with charades, all you need is three or four players, some strips of paper and a pen. Everyone in the family can write the clues on the paper and contribute their own clues, then mix them up in a bowl. Each player has to randomly choose any clue from the bowl and act out the clue written in it. If someone guesses the clue, each of you gets a point. You can play to a set number of points, or until the clues run out.

Charades is an ideal and fun activity for the entire family to bond over, and also get those bodies moving as everyone tries to act out the clues contributed by each other.

The Dance Off

Who is the best dancer in the family? Well, one way to find out is to break out those moves and have a dance off. This activity is perfect for the whole family, where the kids can expend their energy and the adults get to let their hair down.

To get started, you could create a playlist of favorite songs or musical tunes that everyone likes to dance to. From here on, it is very simple and up to each individual’s creative expression. Each person takes turn to dance to the music and the winner will be decided by casting votes.

Whoever is the best or worst dancer in this activity does not really matter. What is more important is having a fun and active time together as a family. The uncoordinated dance moves and giggles are all in the spirit of good fun!

Minute to win it challenges

This activity is simple, and it is made up of multiple skill-based mini games that each player has one minute to complete and score the most points in. There really is no limit to your imagination for designing these games, but here are some prompts for you:

1. How many paper cups or coins can you stack in one minute?

2. How many paper balls can you throw into the basket in one minute?

3. Can you hold your left leg up while touching your nose for one minute?

4. How many rubber bands can you shoot into an empty tissue box in one minute?

5. How many consecutive times can you bounce a balloon in one minute?

At the end of all the challenges, calculate the total score and give the winner a special prize, like choosing what TV show the family gets to watch after dinner. Be sure to prepare a glass of milk for the family, as everyone will be hungry after all that activity!
