Like most people, author and illustrator Mike Lowery has spent a lot of time at home in the past year. To keep boredom at bay, he started dreaming up fun things to do with his wife and two kids. “Sometimes, it was craft stuff; sometimes, it was activities,” he told TIME for Kids. “Anything we could do at the house to have a good time.”
Now, Lowery has created a book containing 100 of his favorites: The Ultimate At-Home Activity Guide. He’d like it to entertain kids long after the pandemic. “Hopefully, this period will be wrapping up sooner or later,” he says. “And kids will just be doing these things on a Saturday morning when they don’t feel like going anywhere.” On this page, Lowery shares an activity with TFK readers.
