Unfortunately, the COVID-19 virus changed our social lives drastically. Live music, playgrounds, sports, and other social gatherings have been restricted or limited during the last year. Therefore, it can take its toll on your own life and what you’re used to doing with friends and family. It can be a challenge to find alternatives for some of the social activities you were used to.
However, there are still fun ways to remain entertained and get creative during the pandemic. Follow along for some ideas, if you and your family seem to be getting a bit stir crazy at home!
Cooking
As spring is quickly approaching, outdoor kitchens are an excellent option for cooking in the warm sun. Vitamin D and the sun are proven to boost your mood and immune system! You can choose to cook kabobs or something fun for the outdoors.
If you don’t have an outdoor kitchen, you can still enjoy cooking inside, of course. Cooking, in general, is a great bonding activity for you and your family. You can look up a new recipe that you’ve never tried before and give it your best shot. The best part is, you’ll have plenty of leftovers to eat for the next day or two. If you’re a baker, you can learn how to bake bread, cookies, or brownies. You can save some for your friends or family and surprise them with a fun treat to brighten up their day! The possibilities are endless.
Movie Marathon
Sometimes, all we need is a little relaxation time. During the pandemic, you can catch up on your movie time. Maybe you can revisit the Harry Potter movies and show them to your kids. You can add some more fun to this day by building a fort and make sure that everyone wears their favorite pajamas. You can buy some yummy snacks like candy or popcorn
