Any one have any suggestions in how they are keeping themselves stimulated in these times. I am currently not working since I am home with five young children and it is not feasible for me to do it, but I feel like I am going nuts feeding my kids all day need to stimulate my mind somehow.
All suggestions welcomed

Listen to something interesting while doing the dishes or cooking.
Teach yourself how to knit with YouTube videos.
Watch nature documentaries with the kids.
Take everybody for a walk around the block - rain or shine.
Think about things you've noticed, now that life has slowed down. The last time I took out the garbage, I saw a real live hedgehog! I've never seen one in the wild (If you can call the suburbs wild), and it was totally adorable. I wanted to adopt it, but it looked happier running free.
Just be a little more mindful in general, and pay attention to little things that you would usually overlook while you are rushing around. Even a hummingbird in the back yard can be a small miracle.
Stop and smell the roses.

If you have 5 kids, this may be difficult, but I find that adult paint by numbers take focus and are very relaxing. Maybe you can do it at night or lock yourself in your room and do it for 20 minutes.
This is the best site with the most choices:

It comes out beautiful and you can frame it at the end.
