Question

How do I fight boredom during a long car ride?

Community Answer

If you are driving, listen to upbeat music that will keep you awake. If you are a passenger, you can listen to music or play games on your mobile phone. You can also play games in the car, such as "I spy."

Question

Is it normal to go to the fridge when bored?

Community Answer

Yes, snacking from boredom is common. To prevent unwanted weight gain or snacking unhealthily, find something else to distract yourself.

Question

What do I do if even a fun activity keeps me bored?

Community Answer

If a fun activity is boring, then its not a really "fun activity." You should try something completely new, or something that catches your attention. Try reading, drawing, sleeping, looking up DIY things to try and make on your own.

How can I entertain myself without a TV?

Write a story. It could be about a superhero, or even something more realistic. Draw a picture. Make a blanket fort. Get creative!

Question

I'm a little kid with nothing to play with. What should I do?

Community Answer

You should go outside and see if there are other kids to play with. Use your imagination and find every-day objects to play with such as pillows to build a fort, mixing bowls and pans to make drums, etc.
