As much as we like kids to go outside and play, that can't always be the case. Sometimes, Mother Nature doesn't cooperate, and the kiddos are forced to stay inside. Typically, what happens is that children resort to their devices. While those smartphones, iPads, and streaming services will keep them busy, it's not necessarily a healthy way to spend the entire day.

So, to avoid the inevitable cries of boredom when parents insist on powering down on those indoor days, you need to have a menu of games for kids at home. It's always a good idea to have a stash of games to keep the kiddos occupied on those bad weather days or when you simply can't plan an outing on days off from school because of work. We've got a fun list of games to play that will give the kids something fun to do and help you keep your sanity.
