These are the perfect cozy things to do at home by yourself.
Read a book
Grab a blanket and get comfortable in your favorite spot, and read a book.

Bake a new recipe

Journaling is another mindful and cozy thing to do at home. Take your favorite notebook and write down your thoughts. You can write about anything you like.
Some ideas to get you started journaling are to write down things you are grateful for, write a letter to your younger self, or write down things you are looking forward to doing.
Cozy Things To Do On A Rainy Day For Couples:
Super cozy and romantic things to do with your partner when you are stuck inside on a rainy day.
Cook a meal together
A fun and cozy date idea for couples to do at home is to cook a meal together. You can make it fun and try to recreate a meal from your favorite restaurant.
Make sure you both put your phones away and give each other your full attention.
Watch a romantic movie
One of my favorite cozy rainy day date ideas is to have a movie night at home. Set out both of your favorite snacks for a complete movie night at home.
Ask each other intimate questions
Get to know each other better and ask each other intimate questions. This is a good idea even if you have been together for a while (and feel like you know everything about them) because their answers may have changed. It’s a good way to reconnect and get to know each other deeper.
Questions to ask your partner (if you need help getting the conversation started):
- What would the perfect date night look like for you?
- If you could vacation anywhere, where would you choose?
- What is your favorite memory of us?
Give each other a relaxing massage
Another romantic and cozy date night idea is to take turns giving each other massages.
Play a game
As adults, we rarely have time to play board games, so a rainy day is a perfect time to bring out the games. It’s something fun to do that you probably don’t get to do often.
Make a bucket list of things you want to do together
You could also use a cozy day inside to make a plan of all the places you want to visit and activities you want to do together.
Make a list of things you want to do together, hang it on your fridge, and try to check off some of the items on your list over time. This is a fun way to make memories with your partner.
Cozy Things To Do On A Rainy Day With Kids:
The best cozy things to do with your kids at home to make fun memories and traditions.
Bake cookies
Bake cookies with your little ones for a warm and fun treat. You can make cookies from scratch (if you’re up to it) or buy premade cookies to bake. The kids will enjoy it either way!
Color
Break out the coloring books, and color with your kids! This is a simple, but fun way to spend time with your kids on a rainy day.
Have a family movie night
Family movie nights are the best! Pick a family movie to watch together, and don’t forget the popcorn.
We usually watch Disney movies on a family movie night.
Play board games
My kid’s favorite rainy day activity is playing board games at home. My kids are still pretty young, so they are obsessed with Candy Land (click to view on Amazon) right now. It’s the perfect board game if you have younger kids.
