75 Best Quarantine Or Rainy Day Activities For Adults

Well, I aim to please!  While we’re no longer stuck indoors due to the COVID-19 trauma, there’s still never a bad time to share with you my list of rainy day activities for adults.   I know that it’s frustrating to be stuck inside, whether it’s rain, snow, illness or quarantine. But thankfully, this recent time of difficulty and social distancing has passed, and now we can just talk about rainy day ideas.  Sound good?

So what do we do when we’re stuck indoors?  What kind of adult rainy day activities can we do that gives us alternatives to watching TV all day or scrolling mindlessly through Facebook?   We need some fun things to do on a rainy day for adults. Am I right?

I have scrolled the internet to find 75+ of the best rainy day activities for adults that I could find.  I’ll be honest. I was pretty impressed with some of the virtual options that are available.  (I added the plus because I continue to find fun things to add to this list.  I hope you don’t mind?)

I realize that we don’t always want to be attached to our technology as the only option.  And you won’t. But there are some pretty cool ways to plug into what would normally be a fun, indoor activity. 

So without further ado, I present to you…

Before we start with some fun, rainy day ideas, my normal go-to is to make sure everything is orderly in my home.  I have an aversion to clutter and hold fond memories of an activity called the 27 Fling Boogie I used to do with the kids. (Side note, my kids, when younger, didn’t mind clutter or having no space in which to walk to get from one side of the room to the other.) 

The concept of the 27 Fling Boogie comes from the FlyLady. I fell in love with her systems back when I had hands and could implement them. So if you love organization, you owe it to yourself to check her out.

Before we get underway, let me tell you about this very fun game to play with your family.  Have you heard of an Escape Room? Imagine if you could get the best of an Escape Room, all in a box. Well, now with a couple of mouse clicks, you can bring one home.  Get your very own Escape Room Kit delivered right to your inbox.  It’s a clever mix of a board game, treasure hunt, and mind-bending puzzles. It’s a perfect way to make good memories with friends, colleagues, children, or your family.

Here we go with your fabulous list of the best rainy day activities for adults. Are you ready?
