Some fun and safe activities to do during COVID this Holiday Season involve staying close to home!
Activities that you and your family could try include:
- Have a small dinner with only the people in your household, or those individuals who you continually have contact with.
- Prepare your favorite family recipes and deliver them to extended family or neighbors! This can help you feel involved in the celebration. Remember to deliver contactless to others (set on doorstep).
- Have a virtual dinner party. Share your recipes and favorite holiday memories.
- Decorate gingerbread houses virtually. Everyone can gather their own supplies and spend time together visiting while they decorate in the safety of their home. Add some suspense by keeping the masterpieces out of camera site and have a “big reveal” at the end.
- Play games virtually. There are a great number of games that can be played. Think: Pictionary, Charades, Scattergories… a simple search on the internet can help you find plenty of options to keep you entertained.
Overall, remember to still follow COVID precautions during the holiday seasons. If you are feeling ill in anyway; stay home, stay hydrated, and get lots of rest. Reach out to family and friends virtually to feel included. As always, continue to wear your mask, wash your hands, social distance, and brainstorm new and safe ways to celebrate the holidays! 😊
