As parents, we’ve all heard the dreaded two-word phrase. You know which one I’m talking about, “I’m bored!” Our kids have more than enough toys to stay busy, yet they still can’t seem to keep themselves entertained without a little help. Enter: The Bored Activity Jar! We created The Bored Activity Jar to help keep our kids entertained without trying to think up something for them to do!
All you have to do is find an old jar, or bowl, and write these activities on it. When the dreaded “I’m Bored” strikes…. simply have the kids pull an activity from the jar! We are constantly adding things to the jar, and our kids love picking activities out of it! Here is the ultimate bored activity jar list to help you fill up your jar with activities!
