- Guitar
- Ukelele
- Clarinet
- Harmonica
- Maracas (Can be DIY’s)
- Pan Flute( Can be DIY’s)

3. Go Outside
Going outside is an awesome way to expel boredom. We personally spend a lot of our time outside playing sports and other activities. We also enjoy climbing trees – well KIT does, maybe not JMB, picnics with easy to carry snacks, walking or running next to a river, and reading or napping under a tree.
4. Hang out with Friends
This is a very vague activity, but could include even sitting at home and getting on a call with friends. Or you could do some of the activities from the “Go Outside” area. You could also try walking around a mall (you don’t have to spend money) or playing sports with friends. You could also walk around a city, or go to the library and just hang out.
5. Try New Hairstyles
You could try out braids, or buns. Even claw clips! Trying out new hairstyles is a fun and challenging way to change up your daily life. If your a boy… you could try it I guess?
6. Make Jewelry
JEWELRY! You can make jewelry out of beads, yarn, string, and more! Here are some simple tutorials to get you started!
7. Try New Recipes
Try out some new ideas to bake and cook! You can make cake, cupcakes, PANCAKES! And so much more! Try out some of our favs! Most, if not all, are vegan. The recipe website we used is one of KITs favorites, full of lots of variety.
8. Check out a New Sport
Playing sports is a super fun way to meet new people, hang out with people you already know, and exercise your body all in one!!! Our favorite sport is, of course, tennis, but there’s plenty of options out there that are all super fun!!! Heres our top four favorite sports, of course including tennis!!!
- Tennis – Super fun, and gets you moving. As long as you have hand- eye coordination, some shoes, and a racket, you can play. Sometimes, you can even hit against a wall (we both play)
- Running – Okay, this one is technically not a sport, but running is an awesome and easy way to move your body! You can run with friends or just run while listening to your favorite music! You don’t have to run really fast, just keep running and find your own pace!
- Soccer – You can just get a ball and kick it back and forth. You can use bushes, ore even walls as nets! Easy to play, and super fun too!!!
- Basketball – It fun and easy to play. Shooting hoops is an awesome way to spend time with friends!
