Cabin fever is irritability, listlessness, and similar symptoms resulting from long confinement or isolation indoors during the winter. Yeah, snow is beautiful, but being snowed in for long periods of time is not fun. There are only so many episodes of your favorite TV show you can watch before you start to lose it. No need to go stir crazy though. Continue reading to prevent a raging case of cabin fever.

Before you start binge watching your favorite shows on Netflix, crack open a book (yes, they still exist). Choosing a good book instead of the television for entertainment can be refreshing. The pages will transport you to another place that’s hopefully a lot less snowy.

If you have children and they’re starting to get irritable from being stuck inside, give them something to do. Have them help you make dinner, create an indoor camping experience, start a kid-friendly DIY project with them. If your little one is about to have a meltdown, pop in the movie “Frozen.” It’s their Kryptonite.

  1. Christmas Gifts

Remember that homemade beer kit your brother got you for Christmas last year? Or the bread maker that you never opened? Now you have an ample amount of time to try these kits and gifts. Who knows—you may find your new favorite hobby.
