We all are stuck up at home because of the corona virus pandemic, there are still plenty of things we can do at home. Check out 17 Things to Do at Home During Quarantine.

For most of us, being in quarantine is a new experience and our mental health care can be declining. We’ve never known a life of strictly working from home, only going out for groceries, and not being able to visit friends or family. 

Here are a few ideas of what you can do to keep busy and keep to a routine while you’re under quarantine.

17 Things to Do at Home During Quarantine

1 Try Yoga

During this time, it’s normal to be feeling more stressed than usual. Staying at home and being confined to your space can be difficult. Starting your day off with yoga has multiple benefits such as decreasing stress, relieving anxiety, promoting better sleep quality, and increasing strength. There are multiple online yoga classes you can stream right from your phone or laptop.

2 Check out TV shows of 2020 on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hotstar.


There are many of excellent programming hit streaming services and the good old-fashioned airwaves just in time for the world to slow down. You can check those shows or movies on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hotstar and other apps.

3 Take Master Class courses for free

There are many courses online which are free try to take them. Learn about cosmetics and beauty, interior design, gardening, and baking from folks at the top of their fields who’d otherwise command a pretty penny for their knowledge.  

4 Have Daily Video Chat with Friends & Family

Research show social interaction really improve our health and well-beings.

Many of us are missing family and friends during this time. And while we have to socially distance ourselves physically, it doesn’t mean you can’t call your loved ones!

Staying connected is especially important to maintain your relationships and it also greatly benefits your mental health by getting you out of your headspace.

5 Meditate

Meditation is one of the best things you can do right now to relieve stress and improve your wellbeing.

6 Set up a home movie theatre

Movie theatres around the country are closed, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still get your cinematic fix. At-home movie projectors have gotten a lot smaller and less expensive in recent years, allowing you to project a new release or family-friendly classic on any blank wall. Pop up some popcorn, set up the pillows, and enjoy the show!

 

7 Write in a journal

Writing a journal will help you not just preserve your memories but will also help you process your feelings about this time that manages to feel simultaneously terrifying and immensely boring.

8 Knit a bad hair day beanie

Needle arts used to be a staple for passing the time while making something useful and pretty. You can learn to knit, cross-stitch, embroider, crochet, or tatt with a beginner kit!

9 Plant a container garden

Just because you have to stay indoors doesn’t mean you can’t get started on your spring gardening. Bring the outdoors in by sprouting seeds or planting a container garden. You can use your fresh herbs in your amazing healthy dishes you’re learning to cook.

10 Learn a new Language

You can pick any language like Spanish, Cantonese, German and learn online.

11 Pamper yourself

Self-quarantining is the perfect opportunity to take the long, luxurious bath of your dreams. You can even soak all day if you like! All you need is a good book, a favourite beverage, and some yummy-smelling bath products!

Pamper yourself more with these homemade facial masks. This is one of my favorite 17 Things to Do at Home During Quarantine.

12 Create some quarantine art

Channel your feelings by doing something creative. Painting is a great way to express yourself, learn a new skill, and help you see ordinary things in a whole new way.

13 Do a Hair Mask

With salons being closed, people are being forced to learn to do their own manicures, hair trims, and even dye jobs. Try out different hair mask.

14 Try something new in the bedroom

Nothing relieves stress and adds some fun like some good sex and thanks to the quarantine you don’t have to resort to quickies to get your fix. Not to mention that sex can be great exercise! Use this time to try out new positions, role play.

15 Read a Book

Read a book if you have. An ebook about happiness, success, self-help, or another positive subject. Sure, romance or sci-fi novels count too! Ebooks come in a wide variety of subjects, are instantly readable on a device, and are delivered 100 per cent germ-free making them the perfect activity for those staying in to avoid illness.

16 Listen to Podcast

Podcasts—audio programs that you listen to through your phone—are one of the best ways to become smarter in your spare time. With subjects ranging from comedy to history to fictionalized drama, there’s something for everyone. You’ll be amazed at how fast time flies when you’re listening to a riveting story.

  • These are great tips! I actually work from home 8 hours a day so I find it hard to do other stuff during this quarantine. On my extra time, I either clean the house, watch movies, or do exercises.

  • I love these ideas so much! It’s such a struggle coming up with something new to do every day. Thanks for sharing!

  • I am enjoying this quarantine period and gives me reason to blog even more. I am also planning to upgrade our backyard garden and that will keeps me busy.

  • Netflix has been my saviour though this, although it's annoying when it asks me if I'm still watching a show, of course I am!!

  • The first two weeks of this craziness was nothing but cleaning which got very boring very quickly. Being able to get back to yoga and reading have been amazing. I like this a lot, I really do need to take advantage of the classes.

  • So far, I journal, read a book, and clean my home. I've been meaning to learn a new language, listen to podcasts, and learn to properly meditate. Let's see how this goes.

  • These are all great ways for people to keep busy. I'm finding I have even less time now to do things as I'm working from home and home schooling the kids. I am managing to do a little cleaning though.

  • It was perfect the first time. I learn so much from you as well! Keep it up great post.
