8 Fun Ways to Spend a Rainy Day at the Cabin

Spring can be quite dreary here in Northern Wisconsin, but don’t let it get you down. There’s still plenty of fun to be had when the weather outside is less than ideal. Here are some fun ways to stay occupied at the cabin on your next rainy day.

Break out a puzzle

Grab a puzzle and a hot beverage, and put your brain to work! Puzzles are a great way to spend time together with friends and family and are an easy way to get everyone involved. If you like a little friendly competition, split everyone into 2-3 teams and race to see who can get their puzzle completed first!

Start a game of Hide and Seek

“3-2-1… Ready or not, here I come!” Even if you have a smaller space, you’ll be amazed at all of the creative places you’ll find to hide for hours of family fun!

Bake something

Pull out Grandma’s chocolate chip cookie recipe or try something new. You’ll have fun in the kitchen and have something delicious to snack on afterward.

Have a movie marathon

Watch your favorite movie series or get through all of the new movies on your list. There’s nothing better than curling up on the couch with a bowl of popcorn and getting lost in a story.

Play a Board Game

Break out your favorite board games and set up at the table to enjoy a day full of fun competition!

Make a pillow fort

Gather all the pillows from around the house and build your best fort! You can even add lights, draw pictures to hang up as decorations, and then enjoy hanging out together in your new hideout.

Do a craft

Grab the glue, construction paper, markers, scissors, and popsicle sticks, and start crafting. Look up fun crafts online or use your imagination to create something truly unique. 

Splash in the Puddles

Don’t let the weather keep you from getting outside. Zip up your raincoat, pull on your boots, and have fun splashing in the puddles and dancing in the rain
