What to Do at Home on Spring Break
Spring break is finally approaching, it will start on April 1st and end on April 9th. A lot of people travel for spring break, but a lot also stay home. For those of you who are staying home here are some fun things to do with your time off.
Movie marathon
You could have a movie marathon with your friends or family, you could pick a certain genre to keep watching or even just random movies. You could also watch a film series, like Fast and Furious or Scream.
Movie theater
Movie theaters are very comforting for most and an enjoyable time to get out of the house but still do something relaxing. There are a lot of new movies coming out, like Scream 6. You could do a movie marathon of all the Screams and then go to the movie theater to watch the new Scream 6.
Games
Getting new games at the store is fun. You could have a game night with family or friends with a bunch of new games you have never played.
Sleepover
Having a sleepover with your friend will always be a fun time to stay up late and talk about your lives together.
Reading
For those of you who love to read spring break is a perfect time to relax and read because schoolwork sometimes gets in the way of reading time. If it is warm enough, you can also sit outside in the sun to read, which can be more enjoyable than sitting inside.
Make TikTok’s
Making funny TikTok’s with your friends or even just watching TikTok’s together is always entertaining.
Exploring the towns or cites near you.
Exploring towns and cities near you will lead to finding new stores or restaurants that you love and have never tried before.
Going out for dinner
Going out for a nice dinner does not happen a lot for people in high school, this is a perfect time to dress up and have a wonderful night with family or friends.
Bake/ cook
For those who never bake and cook but are interested in learning how, a week’s break from school is just the time to start. Baking and cooking can be a stress reliever and you get to enjoy the delicious food after.
Paint
Painting is super relaxing, especially outside on a sunny day.
Ride bikes
You cannot really ride your bike in the wintertime because of the snow but when spring break comes it should be warm enough to get back outside and ride your bike.
Gardening
April is the best time to plant most of your vegetable seeds after your last frost zone. You could also plant pretty flowers.
Reorganizing/ redecorating your room
While organizing may not be fun, it takes a lot of time, so this is a perfect opportunity to get organized. Redecorating your room is fun though, it amazing to see how you can change the look of the same room.
Take a walk
Walking can clear your head and help you think about what is stressing you out and how you can fix that. It is also nice to get a breath of fresh air.
