As teenagers, we tend to veer more towards music these days. Why just listen to the music, when we can get in on the song? It may sound crazy, but you can entertain yourself by making a playlist of your favorite songs and taking some time to just dance to them.  This is a great way to get active and to have a good laugh!

 

3.  Learn Something New About Yourself

Take an online personality test, IQ test, or anything else that will teach you something new about yourself. The better you know you, the better you love and treat yourself and others.

4. Cook something!

 5. Find something to watch

Relax for a while, and enjoy your favorite movies & Netflix/hulu shows! It is so important for us to allow ourselves to rest in knowing that God has everything under control, and we can just enjoy life. Sit back, relax and enjoy your favorite snacks! and Don’t forget to silence your phone.

  6.   Create Something

Whether you write, paint/draw, or you’re a photographer/videographer or anything else you deem creative, take this time and do it! There’s no pressure to produce a perfect work, it’s just you, your craft, and free time. Something beautiful is bound to come out of that combination!
