Have months at home with the kids left you at a loss for what to do? Here’s a week’s worth of fun, an activity a day to keep the boredom at bay

Sunday

Try some cup stacking tower races! Give each kid a stack of disposable cups and have them build a pyramid by lining up a row of 10 cups, putting 9 cups on top of them, then 8, etc. Whoever completes his pyramid first wins.

Monday

Start the day with a bang with a balloon dance. Each child can decorate his or her balloon with a Sharpie, then tie the balloon to their right foot. Turn on the music and it’s dancing time! When the music stops, the kids freeze until it starts again. The last kid with an unpopped balloon wins. Attach a balloon to each foot for double the fun.

Tuesday

If yesterday’s action has left you hungry, why not bake some sugar cookies? Do this all the way: break out the rolling pins, cookie cutters, sprinkles, and chocolate chips.

Wednesday

Time to get out of the house for an unmapped adventure! Load the kids in the car and go for a drive. Have the kids take turns directing you at each intersection — left, right, straight — and see where you end up! (Pro tip: Have Waze handy so you can make it home before bedtime.)

Thursday

For a treat that looks as sweet as it tastes, try making some pretzel butterflies. Place two small pretzels side by side, then “glue” them together with a line of melted chocolate to form the butterfly’s wings. On top, where the two pretzels meet, place two curved pieces of pretzel as the antennas. Fill in all of the holes in the pretzel with melted chocolate and sprinkles, then freeze.

Thanks to MyKosher contest entrant Rochel Mosbacher for the fabulous idea!
