Indoor Spring Activities For Kids

  1. Make paper airplanes.
  2. Tap into their scientific curiosity. This experiment, for instance, teaches kids how it rains — perfect when they're cooped up indoors because of lousy weather.
  3. Feel the rainbow. This colorful sensory activity, which uses rainbow-colored soap bubbles, will keep kids occupied for an hour or more.
  4. Put on a parade. Let your kids dress up and use construction paper to make signs, then have them put on a parade through the house. Be sure to clap!
  5. Build a birdhouse. Use this tutorial for a cardboard option, or stock up on supplies to make a pine cone bird feeder.
  6. Start a pillow fight.
  7. Grow your own celery. Little gardening projects like this one can be fascinating for kids — and they love to check on their progress every day.
  8. Make their own wind chimes. Here's a list of 20 DIY ones.
  9. Let them eat dirt. Every family has their own recipe, but the basic ingredients are: crumbled cookies, chocolate pudding, and gummy worms. Mix and enjoy.
  10. Make something fresh from the farmer's market. Use berries to make jam, nuts to make nut butter, or honey and carrots to make a loaf cake.
  11. Make DIY slime. We've got a recipe for you.
  12. Decorate your windows. Let your kids cut out construction paper shapes and letters, then take them up to your windows to offer sweet messages to passersby.
