The idea of staying home during this coronavirus quarantine might trigger anxiety, but don’t worry because this professional homebody’s got your back! π
Others would always assume that stay-at-home moms are lazy. Sorry to disappoint you, but I don’t just sit on my butt all day. I have a never-ending list of things to do, from tending to my kids first thing in the morning to reading an Autism ebook before I go to bed.
Do I get bored?
Not at all. I have this innate curiosity to read a new book, start an exciting hobby, try a viral recipe, or jot down a homeschooling strategy. In short, staying at home ain’t so bad at all. π
I could have written down a thousand things (including my mommy duties of course), but I get that not all my readers are moms. So here’s my 101 Things To Do at Home and may this list inspire you to become busy and productive during this COVID-19 crisis.

That’s it! I hope I left you with something to do.
Do you have any suggestions to add to this list? Let me know in the comment section below! π
Great list of activities. Personally, I love languages and maybe learning a new instrument. Cool right?
Been doing most of the things on your list even before lock down. The only thing that changed was that I am now hooked on watching Korean and Chinese soap operas!
This is a really helpful list for people like myself, a stay at home mom, especially now that there’s a virus outside. Working at home could be challenging, and fulfilling at the same time because we can spend a lot of time with our children.
