Cooped up indoors?
Try these lo-fi, lo-effort, high fun indoor games – and you might just come out the other side of this cold snap with your snity intact, mamas.
1. Rainy Day Balloon Tennis
Paper plates and lollypop sticks make the perfect batons for this weirdly gentle indoor tennis game.

2. Rainy Day Maze
Create an indoor obstacle course with crepe paper and masking tape, if they’re tangled up surely it will minimise the mischief…right?
3. Rainy Day Slide
Obviously this is a health and safety NIGHTMARE but we all loved this when we were kids. Perhaps best not to do this one when hosting other people’s children especially if the parents are a bit litigious.

4. Rainy Day Paper Plane Target
This one is good for keeping casualties at a minimum. Beware of paper cuts however.
5. DIY Fun Foam Dough
So so so messy, but what the hell they’ll LOVE it.
Step 1: Equal parts cornflour and shaving foam (add food colouring for colour).
Step 2: Get MESSY.
Step 3: You got foam dough!
