10 Things To Do on a Rainy Day When the Kids Are at Home
The kids are off school for the weekend and you’re hit with a cold and miserable day...now
what?! Rainy days can make it tricky to keep the kids entertained indoors. But fret not! The team
at Cyberjammies are here to shower you with ten activities you can do as a family to make a
rainy day a memorably stress-free one. So much so, you’ll be counting down the days until the
next..
1. Solve a Crime:
Embrace your inner detective by solving a captivating mystery from the comfort of your own
home. Download a free murder mystery game or listen to a true crime podcast and try to piece
each clue together to catch the culprit.
2. Host Your Own British Bake-Off:
Channel your inner baker and have your very own baking competition inspired by the Great
British Bake Off. Choose a theme, gather your ingredients, and bake up a storm. Swap roles
and let the kids be the judges before crowning the star baker of the house. Worried about the
post-baking washing pile? Our unisex kids pyjamas, like our Charlie Circus Print Pyjama Set,
are crafted from a soft and breathable blend of 60% cotton and 40% modal, ensuring a cosy
and gentle feel against the skin whilst still having impeccable quality for repeated washing.
- 3. Build a Fort: Tap into your childhood imagination and create an indoor fort with your kids. Use blankets, pillows, and furniture to construct a cosy hideaway. Once your shelter is complete, gather inside with some books, snacks, and a flashlight, and let your rainy-day adventure unfold as you defend your fort from the enemies.

5. Jump in Muddy Puddles: Don't let a little rain dampen your spirits – embrace the wet weather by putting on your wellies and jumping in muddy puddles. Coat yourself in nostalgic memories of when you were younger as you watch the kids soak up the childhood fun. Be prepared for some muddy clothes and lots of laughter!
6. Challenge Each Other to a Board Game Extravaganza:
Dust off your collection of board games and engage in some (not-so) friendly competition.
Whether it's classic games or new-in favourites, board games are a fantastic way to bond with
your children and pass the time on a rainy day.
- 7. Start a Home Restaurant: Turn your kitchen into a gourmet restaurant for the evening. Create a menu, assign roles (chef, waiter, host), and cook up a storm with your kids. Homemade pizzas with a variety of toppings allow everyone to get creative and design their perfect slice - a delicious way to spend your rainy evening with your little ones.
8. Stew Your Own Hot Chocolate
There's nothing like a warm, comforting drink to top off a day indoors. Skip the shop-bought hot
cocoa mix and stew your own hot chocolate from scratch with your kids. Experiment with
different types of chocolate and toppings to create a rich and decadent treat that will warm your
hearts and tummies.
9. Cosy Up with a Movie Marathon
Rainy days are made for movie marathons. Slip into your family-matching pyjamas like our Atlas
Arctic Fox Print Pyjama Set, prepare some popcorn, and get comfy on the couch all together.
From spooky spells to romantic tear-jerkers, a movie marathon is a perfect cosy activity for the
whole family.
10. Write Your Own Bedtime Story
Unleash your inner storyteller by writing your very own family bedtime. Think of a whimsical
world, craft memorable characters, and let your imagination run wild. Tuck yourself into bed and
read away until you drift off into a peaceful slumber.
