    Use some Play-Doh to make a mountain or a statue or anything your child wants to make. Make a DIY thing, not a thing you copied from some website. [1]
    • In a saucepan, add 2 cups water, 4 teaspoons oil, and food coloring (optional). In the same saucepan, add 2 cups flour, 1 cup salt, and 2 teaspoons alum.
    • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until non-sticky. Let it cool on wax paper, then store it in a ziplock baggie in the fridge until you're ready to use it.

    • Using an empty 2 liter (0.5 US gal) plastic soda bottle, cut a large hole in the center (it should be big enough for a bird to enter). Make a small hole beneath the opening and push a stick through so the birds can perch on it.
    • Fill the bottle with a little bit of birdseed and tie a string around the neck of the bottle so you can hang it. If you have a bird feeder hanger with hooks to attach bird feeders to it, use that outside, or you can use a coat hanger. If you don't have either of those, hang your bird feeder from a tree branch.

    Get a glass jar and use a circle of fabric with breathing holes in it for a lid. When you're using the jar, use a rubber band to attach the lid. Study ladybugs, ants, and all the crawly creatures of your backyard.

    • Have each of them bring a Hershey's bar, Starburst, or any type of candy you can get at a store.
    • Take turns hiding the candy around the house for others to find. Be sure to say that once you find one piece of candy, you cannot hunt for more since it's unfair to the other players. At the end, lay out a blanket and enjoy your candy.

    One kid hides while the others try to find him. When a seeker finds the hider, instead of pointing him out, the seeker joins the hider. Once the last seeker finds the hider, a new game starts. Whoever found the hider first will be the new hider. [3]

    Don't flip it quickly or skim it. Read every word thoroughly and do not choose a book that is boring, thick, adult, or not enjoyable for you. Choose a book like Harry Potter, Dork Diaries, Dumb Diaries, Madison Finn, How to Survive Middle School, or Lego novels. Don't choose Gifted Hands, Keep Fit in Ten Minutes, Bored Book, or just anything that is super boring, thick, not fun, and adult. [5]

    You could also use any other device to play fun games.

    Use a tent that doesn't need to be pegged into the ground and set it up in your bedroom or living room. [6]
    • Fill a cooler with drinks and string white Christmas lights around the room to make stars! Fill the tent with sleeping bags and flashlights, turn the lights out, and tell spooky stories.

    Spread some sand outside (you can find it at a pond, or you might be able to buy it) and add a Kiddie-Pool with umbrellas.
    • If you put a large amount of umbrellas up, your beach might be able to withstand rain. (Don't think you can leave this out during winter, unless you want to do some Kiddie-Ice-Skating.)

    Tell a sibling you're bored. Then they will start giving you options, so that means you are making progress. If this is happening, start getting comfortable. Just start talking to them, saying odd, boring or loud things or say something combined. Just say it a lot of times. The next thing is that they will send you to annoy another family member, and that means you finally irritated them. It is very funny when you actually do it.

      • Don't do anything you shouldn't be doing, such as playing an online game with cursing people, starting a blog without asking your parents, or making a YouTube account when your parents don't want you to. Instead, do something crafty or play a board game. Your parents will be proud you're not on the computer.
