While you have definitely heard many things about the COVID-19 pandemic that’s sweeping the world one person at a time, you may have seen a viral meme going around about a daily quarantine schedule for kids who have to stay home. It’s a good way to get a laugh in during times that may be stressing you out a bit. Though the virus is a serious matter, we need to take a moment to laugh every now and then. This one’s just for you, Kansas!
8 a.m. - Get ready for the day
lee hwa geyong/Flickr Wake up and get dressed, we suggest something colorful to keep you cheery. For me, coffee comes before anything else.
9 a.m. - Breakfast
Jill Shih/Flickr Make a simple breakfast with little to no cleanup.
10 a.m. - Call family and friends to catch up
Marc Levin/Flickr Why not use this extra time to catch up? The family you love may be bored (or worse) during their social distancing, so we think catching up might be just what we all need.
11 a.m. - Hobby time!
Grand Canyon National Park/Flickr If you’ve got a hobby, now’s the time to dive in. Why not keep your head busy with focusing on another task besides checking the news or watching people empty shelves of supplies. I’ll use my time to read and get some painting done.
12 p.m. - Lunch

1 p.m. - Run to the store?
Paul Wilson/Flickr Think about running to the store for regular groceries you need despite people’s hoarding tendencies.
2 p.m. - If you went, you’re still at the store.
Bart/Flickr Things are moving really slowly, and that’s fine. You’ve got time to chat with your neighbors in line at the self checkout.
3 p.m. - Naptime
Nick Olejniczack/Flickr Remember how you used to hate naps, but always feel like you need them these days? Now you’ve got the time to take them!
4 p.m. - Check the news
Vicente/Flickr You will want to see if stores are closing, if delivery services are available, or the state of things as a whole.
5 p.m. - Browse recipes
Emily/Flickr It’s been a while since you’ve made something new. Why not use your time to make some bierocks or fresh pie?
6 p.m. - Dinner
Beth/Flickr Make some homemade soup or one of your family recipes you usually don’t have time for.
7 p.m. - Cleanup
La Brionnaise/Flickr Tidy up the house and get dinner cleaned up. You won’t want chores to stack up over the days you’re spending more time at home.
8-9 p.m. - Watch a movie
Cats by moonwhiskers/Flickr Go check out that show you’ve been meaning to start, or catch up on episodes of your favorite. You’ve got plenty of time to watch now!
10 p.m. - Bedtime
Jay/Flickr Get some sleep for another day of keeping yourself busy when you can’t be around other people. Safety first, and sweet dreams!
Here’s the “schedule” for you to see all put together. Feel free to let us know what your schedule would be like for a day in your home.
