When summer is at its peak and the heat wave strikes, everyone rushes to be indoors and away from the scorching sun. You can plan to host some friends and family for a bit of summer fun. Spend the day in your apartment with people you love and care about.

How to Make the Most Indoors this Summer

Just because you plan for a day indoors, doesn't mean your day should be a dull one. You can do hundreds of things to give yourself and your guests some indoor entertainment. For example:

Host a competitive game marathon
Make Google your friend and find age-appropriate indoor games to play with your friends. Timeless games like charades, monopoly, and board games are not only good for pastimes, but they also jog your memory. You can divide yourselves into teams and compete against each other. To make it more interesting, set a wager like the losing team has to clean up after the get-together.
Create new dishes and meals
You and your friends can have a cooking session based on summer recipes. Add your twist and create variations of existing meals. You can also apply the same to some cool and refreshing drinks. Everyone can make a cocktail drink based on the colors they are wearing. And spend the afternoon bingeing on the meals and beverages you prepared accompanied by a movie or light chatting.

Hosting Family & Friends During the Heatwave

With the high temperatures, staying cool is the number one priority, so keep your AC on. Another apartment-friendly tip is leaving your windows and doors open for maximum circulation. Ensure you ice in your freezer or buy several bags of ice to get you and your guests through the hangout session.

Apartment living should not stop you from having fun from time to time. Use a renter-friendly hack to maintain your home conditions even with guests over.
