Survival expert Bear Grylls has introduced a new initiative called ‘The Great Indoors’ – a collection of 100 activities designed to encourage children to try new challenges and learn new skills at home.

The world-renowned adventurer and chief Scout has teamed up with the Scouts UK to launch ‘The Great Indoors’ initiative, a collection of more than 100 activities that children (and adults) can do to tackle boredom and stave off cabin fever. The activities range from boosting communication skills to problem-solving and include challenges such as creating a “storm in a teacup”, designing monster bookmarks and lollipop catapults, becoming a “black-out poet”, making hot air balloons, learning code, practising digital camera skills and much more. And it doesn’t matter where in the world you are, anyone can join in.
