Feeling done with winter already? It can be so hard to keep the kids busy when the park, the playground and the backyard are all off limits. So, what do you do when there are no new episodes of Wizards of Waverly Place on Disney? Beat boredom with these 9 must-try, real-mom, TV-free indoor activities.

Shower Crafty
"I keep an old shower curtain on hand for those stuck-in-the-house days. I put the kids in old clothes or strip them down to their diapers. Then, I mix several cans of shaving cream with food coloring and let them paint on the curtain, themselves or each other. It washes off easily in the shower—and it's fun for them to be piled up in there."
