Board Games: Board games are the perfect activity for families looking to spend some quality time together. They require little setup, can be played in groups, and offer hours of entertainment. They also help kids develop problem-solving skills and practice counting money. Some classic board games that work well for all ages include Monopoly, Battleship, Sorry!, Guess Who?, Chess, Checkers and more!
The Shrine Circus is a hit among kids! We also have plenty of fascinating performers for adults seeking for some amusement on their next night out! Whatever your hobbies are, you’ll find something to enjoy at the Osman Shrine Circus.
Every year, we enjoy bringing such a great event to the Twin Cities, and we can’t wait to return to the people that make it so special: YOU!
Arts & Crafts: Arts & Crafts are a great way to get creative while having fun. From making paper airplanes to decorating your own art supplies like paints and markers – the possibilities are endless! If you need some inspiration, check out Pinterest – it is full of ideas! There are so many easy projects that your kids can do themselves without any major messes or expensive materials.
Outdoor Activities: Even when stuck indoors due to bad weather or school vacation days, there is plenty you can do outdoors as well! Why not start by taking a nature walk? This activity provides an opportunity to get fresh air while exploring your local area. You can also build birdhouses out of recycled materials or look for bugs under rocks and logs. If it’s cold outside simply bundle up in warm layers – like hats and mittens – for additional fun in the snow!
Keeping children busy can be difficult at times but it doesn’t have to be expensive or stressful. Try one (or several!) of these simple activities next time you’re stuck inside with bored kids – from board games to outdoor adventures – there is something for everyone sure to keep them occupied throughout their day off from school or during rainstorms. So instead of dealing with tantrums and complaints why not give some of these ideas a try? You may find that they love them so much they don’t want to go back inside when it stops raining!
