    30 Things From Walmart That'll Keep Your Kid Entertained So You Both Can Survive More Time Indoors

    You might even get some time to yourself.

    1. A tunnel that should provide at least 30 minutes of entertainment. Your tiny humans can crawl through colorful areas and have their own mini indoor gym.

    2. And a set of balls for the tunnel and ball pit combo above. The balls can be used in other various play tent/activity sets — Think Chuck E. Cheese but at home!

    3. A set of liquid floor tiles to appease sensory needs and parent wants for a moment of calmness in the house. Touch each square with your hands *or* have a dance party with your feet to reveal cool colors.

    5. A bounce house designed to be used indoors or outdoors. Kid math states that 1 hour of jumping equates to wiggles being gone for 15 minutes — use your 15 minutes of peace wisely.
