Confession: The Internet is our best friend right now. What we used to take for granted as part of regular life is no longer possible<\/a>. Everything\u2019s topsy-turvy. Travel, dining out and social gatherings seem like things of the distant past. We’re stuck at home working out<\/a> and #quarantinebaking<\/a> like there’s no tomorrow. But you know what will always be there for us? The world wide web. So if you find yourself with all the time in the world now, read on for ideas on things to do online to keep you entertained (and sane).<\/p>\n

1. Get artsy<\/h3>\n

YouTube is your bosom buddy when it comes to picking up all kinds of skills. Want to sketch something? Try tutorials from The Drawing Database<\/a>, Emmy Kalia<\/a> and Schaefer Art<\/a>. Perhaps painting\u2019s more up your alley? Watch and learn from the likes of Acrylic Painting Techniques<\/a>, The Art Sherpa<\/a>, Kelogsloops<\/a> or Daria Callie<\/a>. You can also pick up embroidery<\/a> or crocheting<\/a> \u2013 because why not?<\/p>\n

2. Sit in on a cooking lesson<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s no better time to level up your kitchen skills, thanks to celebrity chefs and their online tutorials. Follow names like Rachael Ray<\/a>, Queer Eye\u2019s Antoni Porowski<\/a>, Massimo Bottura<\/a>, and YouTube channels such as Binging With Babish<\/a> for recipe ideas. Psst: Milk Street Online Cooking School<\/a> is also making its classes free in April! Even if you don\u2019t end up lifting a finger, you\u2019ll be dreaming of all the dinner parties to host once the coronavirus goes away.<\/p>\n

3. Game on with your best buds<\/h3>\n

Social gatherings may not be permitted, but you can still chillax with friends online. Try Netflix Party<\/a> to host a virtual movie marathon, join Houseparty<\/a> for face-time with your extended fam, or go old school with games like Draw Something<\/a> and Words With Friends<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4. Catch a Broadway show<\/h3>\n

Broadway musicals for free? Heck yeah! Click on theatre streaming service BroadwayHD<\/a> on a seven-day trial to watch iconic productions such as The Sound of Music and Phantom of the Opera. When you\u2019re done with that, head to YouTube channel The Shows Must Go On!<\/a> for Andrew Lloyd Webber classics. Each Friday sees a different musical emerge on the platform, and they only stick around for 48 hours, so keep your eyes peeled.<\/p>\n

5. Sweat it out<\/h3>\n

Calling all exercise buffs: There\u2019s no need to go from fit to flab when you\u2019ve got plenty of free online motivation to keep you going strong. From yoga and Pilates to boxing and HIIT circuits, home workout classes<\/a> (and fitness apps<\/a>) by your fave gyms and influencers are here to save the day.<\/p>\n

6. Visit the most magical place on Earth<\/h3>\n

Disney\u2019s theme parks may be closed, but they\u2019ll forever be open in our hearts (and online). Hop on over to Virtual Disney World<\/a> for 360-degree videos that you can pair with a virtual reality headset. Popular picks include Frozen Ever After, Pirates of the Caribbean and Splash Mountain. These rides are free and<\/em> you don\u2019t have to spend half a lifetime waiting in line \u2013 win-win!<\/p>\n

7. Share your secrets<\/h3>\n

Feeling emotional? Find a virtual shoulder to cry on at 7 Cups<\/a>, where you can anonymously share your stories and worries with volunteer listeners 24\/7, and strike up conversations with others in community support chat rooms.<\/p>\n

8. Tune in to a podcast<\/h3>\n

Local comedy. Supernatural sightings. All things Singapore. Murder cases. Romance tales. Want to find out what\u2019s going on in these stories? You won\u2019t even have to read a word. Just put on a podcast<\/a>, drape yourself over the couch, and listen.<\/p>\n

9. Explore the National Gallery<\/h3>\n

Thanks to Google Arts & Culture, you can traipse through the rooms of our National Gallery<\/a> online. Tour the space and gaze at works by Lim Cheng Hoe, Chua Mia Tee, Georgette Chen and Ong Kim Seng for as long as you want to.<\/p>\n

10. Find love in a hopeless place<\/h3>\n

Can\u2019t use your best pick-up lines in a bar? Try dating apps<\/a> and online platforms to mingle with other singles and keep your romance game strong.<\/p>\n

\"strawberry

11. Play retro video games<\/h3>\n

Have a splash of vintage fun with 90s games<\/a> like Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog, Street Fighter, PacMan, Donkey Kong, Mortal Kombat and more. Ah, the nostalgia.<\/p>\n

12. Let loose your creativity<\/h3>\n

Make It In Design<\/a> is welcoming one and all into its online classroom to learn all about The Gift of Creativity. Move along at your own pace and try something new with this course, which will be free until the end of 2021.<\/p>\n

13. Stroll through vibrant city streets<\/h3>\n

Satiate your wanderlust by embarking on walking tours<\/a> (virtually, of course) through the streets of Ibiza, NYC, Tokyo, London and more. All you need is a screen big enough to capture the wonders of these amazing cities!<\/p>\n

14. Curl up with a good book<\/h3>\n

E-books are the way to go \u2013 especially when they\u2019re free. From Authorama<\/a> and Open Library<\/a> to Project Gutenberg<\/a> and BookBub<\/a> to our local NLB app<\/a>, you\u2019ve got plenty to browse through. Need a recommendation? Head over to our book club<\/a>.<\/p>\n

15. Watch animals in their natural habitat<\/h3>\n

For times when humans disappoint, cuddly creatures are our go-to for solace. To marvel at nature\u2019s coolest creations, turn on animal livestreams<\/a> to view giant pandas, beluga whales, penguins, otters, koalas, polar bears and more. They\u2019re oddly comforting to watch.<\/p>\n

16. Take a class on happiness<\/h3>\n

This one\u2019s Ivy League, too. The Science of Well-Being, one of Yale\u2019s most popular courses, will teach you all about happiness and productivity habits. Best of all, it won\u2019t cost you a dime. Sign up for this and other self-development and career coaching resources<\/a> to make the most of your time at home.<\/p>\n

17. Tell a story<\/h3>\n

Get the group together and on board with an unpredictable storytelling game. On FoldingStory<\/a>, you can either read completed tales, start your own plot, or contribute your part to ongoing narratives. You\u2019ll get a few minutes to create and post your 140-character sentence to add to unfinished stories. The result? Novel gems.<\/p>\n

18. Explore with NASA<\/h3>\n

Not all of us can be astronauts. But we can<\/em> pretend to be one with NASA\u2019s virtual tours<\/a>. Check out the flying observatory, get 360-degree views of the Hubble Space Telescope\u2019s home for mission operations, and take a look inside the International Space Station.<\/p>\n

19. Jump on a rollercoaster ride<\/h3>\n

Strap on for an adrenaline rush with first-person, front-row views on crowd favourite thrillers like Cyclone<\/a> in NYC\u2019s Coney Island, Superman \u2013 Ride of Steel<\/a> in Maryland\u2019s Six Flags, and Hagrid\u2019s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure<\/a> at Universal Studios in Florida. We don\u2019t know about you, but we\u2019re feeling giddy already.<\/p>\n

20. Transform yourself into a Renaissance painting<\/h3>\n

This one\u2019s totally random, but if you\u2019ve always wondered what you\u2019d look like as a portrait hanging on the walls of a museum, submit your selfie to AI artist Al Gahaku<\/a> and pick your preferred filter.<\/p>\n

21. Go back in time<\/h3>\n

Love exploring underground tunnels? Pay a virtual visit to the catacombs of Paris<\/a>. You never know what you\u2019ll bump into.<\/p>\n

22. Pick up a new language<\/h3>\n

Making learning fun, popular app Duolingo<\/a> offers courses on Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Portuguese and more. P.S. Fans of BTS can gain a basic grasp of Korean<\/a> with short, easy lessons from the K-pop boyband.<\/p>\n

23. Sing your heart out<\/h3>\n

Who needs choir practice when you can take your vocal cords online? Check out The Sofa Singers<\/a> for weekly 45-minute sessions of simultaneous singing or join the voices on Lifefullness Live<\/a> every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. If you just want to immerse yourself in beautiful, soothing sounds, listen to Eric Whitacre\u2019s Virtual Choir<\/a> or, closer to home, our own initiative by Voices of Singapore<\/a>.<\/p>\n

24. Read superhero comics<\/h3>\n

Can\u2019t wait for the next Marvel movie to hit cinemas? Read its classics in the meantime on Marvel Unlimited, the brand\u2019s digital comics subscription service. Stories featuring the Avengers, Spider-Man, Captain America and Black Widow will be available for free until May 4 on the app, which you can find on Apple<\/a> and Google Play<\/a> app stores.<\/p>\n

Got a thing for lists? Grade whatever you can get your hands on with Ranker<\/a>. You can vote on movies, music, sports, history, culture, entertainment, games and more.<\/p>\n

The educators at the Science Centre Singapore are putting together an Astronomy 102 Live Vodcast and Stargazing series on their SCS Observatory Facebook<\/a> page to delve into topics such as Living in Space, Asteroids and Exploring the Universe. Fridays will alternate between the sessions and livestreams of stargazing.<\/p>\n

28. Immerse yourself in art and music<\/h3>\n

No festivals? No problem. Esplanade Offstage<\/a> brings the arts to your home with music, theatre, dance, visual arts, and literary arts performances by local and Asian acts from its archives.<\/p>\n

39. Admire the Northern Lights<\/h3>\n

Catching sight of the unpredictable Northern Lights is a phenomenon in itself. But if you\u2019ve got time and patience, wait and watch for the Aurora Borealis<\/a> in Canada. Lucky ones will tune in right when the live cam is capturing those lovely emerald green hues.<\/p>\n

42. Groove to concerts by pop stars<\/h3>\n

Celebrities – they\u2019re just like us, right? Wrong. We\u2019re all staying in, but not all homes are made equal. (Especially not the ones with sprawling gardens, swimming pools, movie theatres, and gyms.) Still, they\u2019re just as bored as us. And that has resulted in great entertainment in the form of home concerts<\/a>. From John Legend to Dua Lipa to Backstreet Boys, these music gigs are everything.<\/p>\n

43. Journey through nature<\/h3>\n

Bring the great outdoors into your home with livestreams of Mother Nature\u2019s finest in the US. Think Yellowstone National Park<\/a> and its geysers, Rocky Mountain National Park<\/a>\u2019s elks, the majestic waterfalls of Yosemite National Park<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n

44. Host a quaran-tune dance party for one<\/h3>\n

Shimmy into your sleekest threads and get a little tongue-in-cheek about the coronavirus when you put on this stay-home playlist<\/a>. With a homemade cocktail in hand, you\u2019ll be jamming to tunes about social distancing, self-quarantining and keeping your chin up.<\/p>\n

\"cocktail

45. Flex your mind muscles<\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t let \u2018em turn to jelly just because you\u2019re stuck at home. Try brain teasers<\/a>, puzzle games<\/a>, sudoku puzzles<\/a> or even mobile game apps<\/a> for fun entertainment.<\/p>\n

46. Party it up online<\/h3>\n

Whether you\u2019re using Zoom, FaceTime or Google Hangouts, you can easily organise an online gathering<\/a> anytime and do anything you want. Trust us: You’ll be hosting virtual parties, toasting to happy hour at home, and battling it out at beer pong in no time.<\/p>\n

47. Watch local<\/h3>\n

Homegrown theatre company The Necessary Stage<\/a> is offering free access to its past productions online. Best of all, viewers get to vote for their fave works to see on screen, and you have till the end of the month to check it out. First up: \u2018Those Who Can\u2019t, Teach<\/a>\u2019 from 2017.<\/p>\n

\"beach

48. Transport yourself to the beach<\/h3>\n

Fancy a trip to the Maldives? Or perhaps Mykonos in Greece is more your style? Bring the beach to your home<\/a> with livestreaming videos<\/a>. You won\u2019t get those sunny rays, tropical cocktails or sandy strolls, but hey, you can always shake up your own margarita and lounge by the window.<\/p>\n

49. Listen to classical music<\/h3>\n

As concerts are cancelled, the Singapore Symphony Orchestra<\/a> is bringing its performances online. In the digital realm, it will launch video and audio clips of newly recorded productions, works by local composers, and never-before-released clips from its archives until the end of June.<\/p>\n
