Fun Activities to Keep you Busy at Home this Summer

April 17, 2021 in Entertainment
baking at home this summer

Summer is the season that I always look forward to since I was a kid. It’s such a great time to experience childhood and learn to be creative to cure boredom. But sometimes, I find myself completely at a loss for how to use my time. Maybe because of too many options to even begin with. So, if you are looking for ideas to keep yourself entertained this summer, I got you covered! I came up with a list of fun activities for you to have a good time without leaving your house.

1. Bake, bake, bake! If you’re a fan of baked goods, it’s great to explore baking this summer. You can take advantage of all the delightful flavors and vibrant colors of the season. Who doesn’t want to eat bread, cakes, and cookies, right? Store-bought goodies contain too much preservatives and fake ingredients. So if you want to indulge, do it right!

2. Binge-watching a show is always a comforting fallback, be it a drama, rom-com, or reality shows. Turning to any streaming service like Netflix is a clear option. There’s always a show to binge-watch, old or new regardless of the service you’re subscribed to.

You can also make it more fun by downloading the Netflix Party extension to watch your favorite series or movies with friends or partners at the same time.

3. Playing video games is another option to pass the time this summer. In addition to the games you might already have on your PlayStation or Xbox, there are other ways to play.

If you’re looking for a new gaming experience, playing FREE online video games is worth trying out. plays.org offers free and fun online games which can quickly be played from your browser. The thinking behind this site was since so many people are stuck at home during rolling lockdowns, they want to add a bit of joy to our lives.

This reminds me so much of my childhood! They currently have around 100 games and try to publish at least 1 or 2 additional games every day. Some of my favorites are Princess Goldblade and the Dangerous Waters, Neon Invaders, Open Restaurant, and Tap Supermarket Grocery Store Simulation Game.

4. Read something new. If you’re like me, you have more than enough books on your shelves to keep you busy this summer. There are also ways to download free eBooks to your tablet, computer, or phone.

5. Draw or Paint. If you are artistically inclined, let your creative ideas flourish! If you don’t think you possess the skills, don’t worry! You can join an online art class where you can try painting, mixed media, fiber arts, clay, and more! You will dive more deeply into various mediums to immerse yourself in a week of creativity.

6. DIY projects! Did you know that Pinterest can keep you entertained with its aesthetically pleasing pictures and help you be creative? While some projects might require stuff that you don’t have on hand, you might find supplies after you organize that overflowing closet. It will be a fun activity, and you can find a project for anyone!

    What I really love since childhood is summer. It is because of having a lot of free time to be spent on things that I love to do. These tips that you have mentioned above are all interesting and helpful as well. A lot of us are bored right now since we are facing this pandemic and we can’t go out to enjoy the summer. That’s why I think that these tips are very helpful and worthy of our time. I think for me I want to try baking since I haven’t experience it yet.

    Since we’re on a pandemic situation, staying home is the best ever choice. A perfect scenario to have a commonly found activity with kids and family

Good, high-paying jobs await qualified tech-voc grads. If only they’re given proper incentives, multisectoral support and a supportive policy environment, the tech-voc track can also be a viable alternative for young Filipinos who wish to lead productive lives. 

We may still have a long way toward strengthening our tech-voc ecosystem in the country, but with a little help and support from the government, industry, and academe, we are making crucial inroads that lay the foundation for the future. As we promote tech-voc to the youth to undergo tech-voc training, we hope that tech-voc professionalism and licensing will soon be implemented as well.

Check out this article: https://www.nicolesanmiguel.com/tech-voc-philippines to learn how we can reshape the tech-voc programs in the Philippines.

There's nothing new under the sun. Issues on diffe There's nothing new under the sun. Issues on different parts of the nation have been the same since the beginning. But you'll never know what is ahead. "Change starts with oneself" as they say. Do your duties not by choice.  I know we all have freewill, but do your duties because it is our obligation as human being. Make a wise decision this coming election. 

@therundownforum will be holding its youth-oriented senate elections forum this March 12, 2022. I hope you take the time to stay informed and be part of this movement. Don’t forget to #MakeYourMove this #Halalan2022 🗳

See you at #TheRundown2022!
