The Coronavirus has surprised all of us, and even if your country isn't under lockdown, it's safest to avoid social interactions as much as possible and stay home. We've put together a list of things to do at home that go beyond just watching Netflix. These activities are not only fun but also stimulate creativity, making them perfect for these challenging times.

Ensure you wash your hands before starting, and get ready for some entertaining moments.

 

 4. Netflix

 

Watching Netflix

 

Embrace the cliché and enjoy some time on Netflix. For a unique watch, consider "Blown Away," a competition among glassblowers worldwide, or "Explained," delving into intriguing and often taboo topics. Another recommendation, "This Is Us," is a compelling family narrative that might just bring a tear to your eye. 

 

5. Organize

Take this opportunity to declutter and organize your living space. Sorting through shelves or closets not only creates a tidier environment but also provides a sense of control and accomplishment. Donate what you don't need and arrange the remaining items neatly.

You don't need to leave your home to stay active. Engage in indoor activities like cleaning with music to make it more enjoyable. Yoga is another excellent option for calming your mind, body, and soul. Focus on inhaling and exhaling to enhance concentration.
