Winter is coming and the weather is changing: the nights are getting colder, the days are getting shorter, and the news regarding the Corona Virus is not better.
Between the lock-down and the social distancing restrictions, we spend a lot of time at home.
Edna Roberts recommends a few nice things to do at home to improve the mood and maintain high spirits:
Prepare a special FUN breakfast with homemade jam, vegetables in different colors and a delicious coffee – a great way to start the day! Play games from ‘the past’ such as ‘Monopoly’ or ‘Risk’ and go down memory lane.
Play ‘Dominos’ or ‘Rummikub’ with the children , or assemble puzzles. + Pet your pets and play with them as well.
Grownups love to play too!
Hold a pen in front of a blank paper and write a song, a story, or at least a card to someone, or draw with colorful crayons.
Leave the keyboard and return to the good old days of writing on paper.
Build a tent with the kids and cuddle in it with dolls and bears. + Use your imagination and abandon the screens and the tablets.
Arrange a Movie-Night with the family – Pizza and Popcorn will make the evening complete.
You can organize a Pajama – Party with matching pajamas!
When doing things together the feeling of loneliness disappears and memories of ‘together’ are being created.
You may also sit and relax in a cozy corner at home, let your thoughts wonder around and smile to yourself.
