The self-isolation regime introduced in our country to prevent the spread of coronavirus has affected the lives of all citizens. Many businesses have transferred their employees to remote work, schoolchildren and students are trying the innovations of distance learning. But everyone, without exception, had more free time that needs to be spent within four walls. There are many ways to spend this time profitably or simply with pleasure.
1. The first option, the most versatile for all ages: watching movies and TV series
If you don't already have a list of movies you'd like to watch, it's time to start one. To do this, you can use various collections on the Internet in text and video formats. Usually the top films are grouped by genre or year of release, for example "the best thrillers with an unexpected outcome of 2019". You can choose a series on the advice of friends, so that later you can discuss it with them.
2. Take things apart
You can start with your personal shelf or the knickknacks on your nightstand. Many things have not been in demand for a long time and simply collect dust. It's time to throw away all unnecessary things. Large-scale debris analysis can be arranged on the balcony, in wardrobes, in the dressing room and in the closet.
3. General cleaning
Take care of cleaning where you haven't looked for a long time. Wipe down the ventilation grilles, wash the hood, dust off the cabinets, on the refrigerator, over the doors, and wash the windows.
4. Prepare something for the first time
If before you were afraid to work with the dough on your own, it's time to start baking. Complex gourmet dishes, requiring a long preparation, have been waiting for this very hour. You do not need to rush to work and save time by quickly cooking pasta. Prepare something really tasty to pamper your husband and kids.
5. Do something with your own hands
Perhaps you already know how to knit, crochet, or make crafts from scrap materials. It's time to pump your skills and create something new and unique.
6. Learn new things
There are many training videos and information on the Internet on all possible topics from nail extension to Java programming. You finally have time to master an alternative profession.
7. Play board games
Since you cannot go outside, a board game will be a good way to have fun with the whole family. Monopoly, UNO, Memo, Svintus, Jenga - there are a lot of games available for children, but at the same time interesting for adults.
8. Improve your knowledge of foreign languages
Many of us have long dreamed of communicating more freely in English for work or travel. Fortunately, now there are a lot of specialized applications, videos and even online lessons in language schools.
9. Go in for sports
There is absolutely no need for special equipment to keep fit. All you need at home is a fitness mat and free space. Yoga, stretching, strength training - a wide range of activities can be found on video hosting and sports apps.
10. Take care of your beauty
Make face masks, scrub and lotion for the whole body, and enhance your daily grooming ritual with toner, serum and cream.
11. Spend time with your family
Teach your child something interesting, help him with assignments. Set aside time for a romantic pastime with your spouse.
