Any idea how to entertain anak2 at home? No tv or phone

DIY projects..

cooking/baking..

exercises for kids

How old ??

Play games like board games. Recently saw a cooking video, could include them to help out cooking or if baby carry around safely you cook your food.

my boy 3yo, Let him draw, colour free style... help out making cake or bread, building blocks, washing car, watering plants, cut grass, playing hide n seek, he likes to use pillow to build his truck, lorry n trailer play along, carry him on the shoulder to vacuum, mop and wiping stuff and alot of others

he want to join whatever activity u r up to

I actually reduce the amount of TV and especially the phone.
Youtube to a maximum limit of 1 hour only set on my Google Family Link. And only strictly Youtube Kids.

You will be surprised the contents of Youtube Kids sometimes, depending on you, can be questionable. Set aside education ones like Blippy or PinkFong, the rest, are rather ad-driven. I.e Ryan's Toy Review.
TV? For now, only my Astro (njoi) has free viewing of Cartoon Network. But their cartoon is rather...typical american. Less logic than sense.
Not like olden days of Donald Duck or Mickey Mouse.

Anyhow, I installed google family link for children and teens, on my wife phone, since they always hijack my wife phone.
I highly recommend for those who's phone always kena hijack and hard to take away from them.
There is a feature whereby if they misbehave, can remotely "lock" phone. The lock is almost unbeatable. . This will force them to surrender back the phone.

Google Family Link for children & teens

You need to install one for the children side (which in this case, my wife's phone) and another on the parent's side (my phone).

My 6yr old daugher used to install games, but after installing Google Family link, I control the installation of nonsense, and further put a password protected on Google Play and TikTok (yes, my wife uses TikTok, but my 4yr son seems to like it, but I disagree on him viewing nonsensical video. Sorry TikTok fans) .

In fact, they will entertain themselves, so much so, over active.
My daughter have lots of imagination to keep her busy, that makes me wonder, how come I have less imagination during my childhood times.

Came here looking for ideas, agree that they just want to join whatever you're doing. My nephew thinks we are all home to play with him not to do work

really need to have loads of patience, because they got loads of energy too, so got to think of something or ideas to drain their energy

let them do drawing or watch kids channel on tv

Ya.. you got any suggestions for activities that will drain him without draining me lol

haha try hide n seek, my boy 3yo, let him find u (he likes to do that), but must let him find u, dun make it too hard to find cause he will lost interest, play water bubbles, let him run around in the garden, play inside my car, when i need to vacuum and mop the floor, he wanted to help, so give him sweeper and mop n play along together

Impossible.. I tried.. Children always hope their parents participate the game with them

LOL how do you dont make it too hard ?

I started printed out worksheets for my kid today (our new printer just arrived). And she got so excited and ask me to keep printing new worksheets every 15 mins. Good thing is less screen time today, bad thing is i couldn't focus on my work today. Whatever it is, i'm happy that it can keep her occupied

bring them to the playground for a good exercise

Basically, if no tv or phone. You need to taman to play all day long. They will bring toys for u to play with them.

actually TS mentioned on no TV or phone. so not sure why you're suggesting TV and phone, and even in moderate duration?

play board games

Jigsaw puzzles
Crossword puzzles
Legos
