The coronavirus pandemic has spoiled the celebrations of all the festivals in the year 2021. And Christmas does not stand unseen either. The Christmas festival will also be celebrated keeping in mind the pandemic instructions issued by the government. In view of the growing instances and risk of the virus, families have decided to stay at home and enjoy Christmas only with the near and dear ones.
But, Xmas should not be celebrated in a boring manner during the pandemic. It is not necessary to go out of the house to indulge in the festive joy. Besides decorating your home with glittery lights, we can celebrate Christmas safely at home and make it enjoyable. Here are some fun ideas to celebrate Christmas while social distancing.
Virtual Xmas Party
Partying should not be limited to meeting near and dear ones in person as a pandemic cannot stop you from arranging a virtual party. Create a WebEx party link and invite all your friends to indulge in the virtual Christmas party. Play some games and enjoy drinks together online.
Interactive activities such as festive remote games, holiday icebreakers, and crowdsourced Christmas playlists should be included in a virtual holiday party to make it real fun. By using breakout rooms, you can divide guests into smaller groups more conducive to intimate discussions, to ensure that all attendees have opportunities to interact and connect with near and dear ones.
Christmas Cocktails Competition
While you’re eager to have your bottle of favourite drinks, think a bit and come up with Christmas cocktails. You can indulge in an inter-family Christmas cocktails competition and exhibit those bartending skills.
Board Games & Cards Games
Take out the old board games and blow away the dust. While you’re home this Xmas, enjoy playing fun board games and card games with your loved ones. Make it even more exciting by pairing those games with Christmas gifts.
Festive Family Feasting
Food is a vital part of any seasonal gathering. All of us like fancy Christmas dinners and just because there are fewer people at Christmas dinner this year doesn’t mean you should skip it. Prepare your best Xmas dinner for a festive family feasting.
Christmas Movie Marathon
Planning to celebrate a cozy Christmas by staying in? Make up arrangements for a Christmas movie night with your lovely partner. Snuggle in the blanket and enjoy watching a Christmas movie like The Grinch with some pizza drinks and cuddles.
