6 Fun Ideas to Break the Monotony of Quarantine Living

Roll up the rug and put on your dancin’ shoes for a living room dance party. First, choose a theme. Hold a 50s-style sock hop in which everyone wears funny socks and does the Hand Jive, go disco with a disco ball and do the hustle or go full-on rock 'n roll. Make sure you have a great playlist ready to go so no one has to stop the fun and look for songs.

Set the scene by pulling all the curtains and shades and maybe even setting up a disco light. If you don't have a disco light, you could also artfully arrange some glow sticks or strands of white twinkle lights. Motivate the kids to get out and boogie with these silly dance games and activities from Mom Junction. When the kids need a break from jumping around, pull out a karaoke microphone that lights up as you sing.

All that dancing and singing will make everyone hungry and thirsty, try out these microphone cake pops from Scholastic or mix up this three-ingredient sparkling strawberry punch from Julie's Eats and Treats.
