    I have to say that the best indoor game is literally just using your imagination. When I was little younger I used a broomstick as a sword and just imagined a ton of enemies around me. Sometimes, when your an only child, you gotta make your own fun.

    When I was younger I used to love building forts. If there are enough kids they can build two forts and role play battle. There also hide and seek. Leap frog. Out of water marco polo. Drawing. Hope I helped a bit.
