Don’t let rainy days ruin your cheery mood. We have 5 of our favourite boredom busters to share with you.

• Have a movie marathon.

Choose 3 movies that you have been dying to see or 3 of your old time favourites. Make a big bowl of popcorn and a nice big mug of Hot Chocolate and curl up under a big fluffy blanky.

• Bake cookies.

Nothing beats a cold gloomy day like fresh warm homemade biscuits to keep your tummy happy. Find a whole batch of really easy biscuit recipes here.

• Indoor treasure hunt.

Put clues on numbered envelopes each one leading to the next. You can even put a small treat with each clue that eventually leads you to the treasure.

• Play a board game.

Dig out the old board games that you have lying around such as Rummikub or Scrabble. This is sure to keep you entertained for hours.

• Snuggle up next to the fireplace.

Have a date night at home. Home is where the heart is. Light up the fireplace, open a bottle of red wine, nibble on your favourite snacks and end it with a nice warm mug of your favourite something.
