Thankfully I've not had to stay home due to no TLM for many years now, but when the revolution first took over, we stayed home, read the Mass in it's entirety best as we could from our missal, took our spiritual communion and generally did what we could to keep the day holy. Pray the rosary etc.
Often my mom read us stories of saints, catechism, practiced our Latin etc.. Occasionally my parents would tell us stories about when they were young and the way the Church and society used to be when they were growing up in the 40s - fascinating stuff.
One major thing was and, as a result, still is, is to stay far away from the NO, no matter what. No matter what.
