How to have fun during a Hurricane!
In the midst of a hurricane, one generally endures occasional boredom. Yet, there are numerous ways to keep yourself and the others around you occupied with the following beneficial prompts!
1. Invite a group of friends over and have a board game pow wow! I would recommend playing Apples to Apples because it is lighthearted and silly, while something like Scrabble might remind you that there is, indeed, an uncomfortable situation surrounding you.
2. Tell ghost stories! Hurricanes are the perfect time to tell ghost stories because the power usually goes out and one may find their house infested with candles and the echoes of howling winds.
3. Read and write! Write down what you are experiencing during the hurricane and try to turn a somewhat dismal situation into an investigative report. Read books to take your head somewhere else and forget about the nasty weather outside.
4. Make music! Invite friends and family over and take the time to bond over beautiful musical creation!

Number 4 is my favorite, I’ll definitely try it out.
When I lived in Kansas in kindergarten there was a tornado near my house, so we all went down to the basement and played games and stuff to keep us calm. I was so excited and having a blast probably because I didn’t really grip what was happening, hopefully I would be like that in future life-threatening weather situations(:
Trying to have fun during a hurricane is a good idea, it will keep the little ones calm and entertained.
