Entertainment is inevitably an integral part of humans. It is natural to make time for ourselves since we all work hard every day.

With the current pandemic, it has been quite challenging for people to go out and have fun as accustomed since people have to be more mindful of their health. Moreover, the pandemic has forced the entire world to lockdown. 

So, most people are asking,  how can one bring the fun home with them?. Here are a few ideas on how you can bring fun to your home entertainment and make it worthwhile.

1.Throw an Indoor Picnic

Set out a picnic blanket and food basket, and eat your dinner as if you were on a picnic. Having variety in your family life brings your family closer together. This type of event is frequently the catalyst for a fun-filled evening.

2. Film a family Newscast

The technology available today is incredible. Smartphones are pre-programmed to record videos.

Set up and produce a newscast about what is going on in your community or your family circle. This will also assist everyone in learning to communicate in public. Doing this at home is an unusual way for a family to interact.

Consequently, it is a better way for the family to use their phones other than social media.

3. Organize an International Dinner Night

Choose a country that you want to learn more about and are interested in as a family. Find cuisine unique to that country and prepare a meal that would be served in that country.

The family can even find country-style clothing and wear it to dinner. Each family member would be responsible for bringing one fact about the country to share at dinner time. 

Everyone could wear sombreros to dinner. Plan for an evening of creative learning time!

4. Hold a Karaoke Night

Plan an evening of karaoke. It’s the perfect way for the family to spend some time together. Trust me that this will be a time that will be filled with laughter and fun! The memories created here will also give a chance for better funny stories in the future. People enjoy singing, and whether they have a good voice or not, they like to give it their best shot. 

You can even make it more interesting by buying a Floor video wall that will emit different colors and give it a clubbing effect. They have high resolution, quality, and flexible layout options for their hardware, and you’re guaranteed an exotic experience. 

5. Have a Water Balloon Battle.

It is preferably done out of the house, in the backyard. It’s an “action” activity that brings out the youthfulness in all of us. Get as many balloons as possible and fill them with water. Go outside and aim for your target. Run, laugh, and have fun!

6. Prepare a color splash

Nothing is as amazing as playing with colors. Picture this! Taking time back to your childhood. This is an activity that can be outside in your backyard. Get as many varied colors as possible, depending on your family size and color preferences.

Divide the family into two teams and let the team choose a leader. Once this is done, let the team choose an animal and try to paint it on their leader’s face. With time, this will turn into a battle of colors, laughter, and pure fun.

7. Film a Family Cooking Show

Have you ever watched any cooking shows on television? Cooking is a popular topic. Cooking shows are so popular these days that there are networks that only broadcast cooking shows. Choose a recipe that you want to try. Pretend you're hosting your cooking show and record yourself doing so. Make sure that everyone in the family participates in some way. You will undoubtedly laugh a lot while watching your family cooking episode.

8. Organize a Photo Shoot

Gather some props and outfits and take some family photos. Make sure that each member has their shots. Be creative in your photography as if you were a professional photographer. Take amusing photographs. Take serious photographs. Take candid photographs. The beauty of digital photography is that you can take as many photos as you want and then delete the ones that don't work. Make sure to include themes and props to make it more interesting.

9. Enjoy a Spa Night

Make a night of it and have an at-home spa night. Light candles, play soothing music, and create a spa-like atmosphere in your home. Facials, manicures, and pedicures are all available. You can also take bubble baths. Schedule each person to do a different task and rotate the process. This time of pampering and relaxation will be enjoyed by your entire family. Ensure that you know the essential spa requirements and procedures of performing the routines.

10. Play Video games

Split your family into two teams and compete with each other on video games, and have a prize to win. The fun with this is that the whole family will have to play a variety of video games. The activity brings the family closer and gives the family stories to discuss in the future.

The Bottom Line

Entertainment remains an essential aspect of our lives. Whether you are thinking spa day, international dinner, karaoke night, or filming a family cooking show, ensure that it is enjoyable for you and your loved ones by the end of the day.
