Rainy Day Adventures: Indoor Activities to Keep Kids Entertained at the Cabin

Just because it's raining outside your cabin doesn't mean you can’t have fun. If you wish to remain indoors, take part in these fun indoor activities that will make you bond with your kids.

Top Fun Activities for the Kids to Prevent Cabin Fever 

Steal any of these ideas or all of them for your next cabin vacation:

Play Family Trivia

If you watch Jeopardy! With the kids regularly, bring it with you on your cabin vacation. Create a custom trivia game for your family with categories like favorite snacks, childhood memories, and favorite animals, and create clues to help them find the answers. Have a couple of laughs and make memories that will last a lifetime. 

Create a Pillow Fort

If it is raining hard outside and your kids are getting restless, calm them down with a pillow and blanket fort. Take them from the beds and pile them in the middle of the living room, right in front of the fireplace. Move furniture out of the way before building the fort. This is a great way to make your children appreciate off-screen play. 

Plan an Indoor Scavenger Hunt 

Who says scavenger hunts are just for the outdoors? Make an indoor one using the items you have in your possession, and make your kids participate. Draw up fun clues that they can understand and follow. Help them find the items but make it challenging for them. The activity will give them a new perspective and appreciation for family time. 

Play Hot Potato

This game will have everyone up on their feet and laughing their heads off. Ask the kids to sit on the floor in a circle and play some music. Make them pass a potato, a soft ball, or a bean bag around as fast as they can till the music stops. When the music stops, the person holding the item must leave the circle. Keep going till there is a winner!

 Read the Day Away 

Reading a book is still considered one of the most mentally stimulating things a child can do since it gets them excited about learning. Take books or a digital reader with you on vacation filled with their favorite books. Read to them or let them read independently when it is raining outside.
