8 Ways Show Your Friends and Family You Love Them This Christmas Amid Quarantine
Spread Love, not COVID-19
Staying connected to those you love, but cannot physically be with, is a lofty task. It’s often difficult to replicate the joy experienced through quality time with friends and family, and while technology has made it easier than ever to stay in touch, nothing beats giving someone you love a hug.
Here’s a list of things you can do to stay in touch with your loved ones.
1.Give them a phone call
Phone calls are the best way to keep in touch with your loved ones. With texting and messaging, phone calls aren’t so common these days, but just hearing someones voice can cheer them up significantly.
2. Send them a sweet treat
Quarantine is a great time to work on your baking skills, so get in the kitchen and whip something up that you can drop off or mail to family living elsewhere.
3. Send them a hilarious gift
While the holiday season is packed with cheer and yuletide fun, it also comes with stress, panic, and one too many last-minute shopping trips. This year, lighten up the holidays by giving these laughter-inducing gag gifts to your family, friends, and coworkers, which are especially perfect if you’re hosting a gift exchange.
No one — even your office’s designated Grinch — can deny that laughter is the best gift of all.
PeenPlush™ the surprisingly cute and cuddly penis pillow.
A giant plushy penis that packs some frankly obscene girth. This stuffed peen pal is nearly 12 inches long and has slightly terrifying black little eyes that you could get lost in if you tried. We recommend you don’t try though. Explaining to a bystander why you were gazing longingly at a humongous plush chode is no mean feat.
4. Write and play them a song
Quarantine is a great time to learn new skills like singing or playing an instrument, and you can show off your new talents — and bring some joy to others — by playing them a song they like or even one you composed yourself.
5. Make them a quarantine playlist
Even if you can’t sing or play an instrument, you can still connect with others through music. Curate a playlist for your loved ones consisting of classic pop songs, new music you want them to hear or even just tunes that remind you of them.
6. Host a virtual game night
Add some fun to everyone’s week with a virtual game night. Find online versions of your favorite games that everyone can join in to play, or set up a video game stream.
7. Offer to run errands for them
If you’re already heading to the grocery store or running other errands, offer to do the same for others in your family, especially the elderly.
8. Stream movies together
You may not be able to spend time with your loved ones in person, but you can show that you care by spending time with them virtually. Stream movies at the same time while on a video call and you can enjoy your old favorites together, explore new genres and get lost in amazing locations on film.
