Christmas Group Activities Online

Here’s the thing: Christmas is going to be weird this year. We’re not allowed to see anyone outside of our “bubble”, which – in my case – means this will be the first Christmas ever I won’t be spending with family. I’m not okay – but I also want to make the most of what we can. And in this case? That’s going to mean, apparently, lots of Christmas group activities online – to get at least some family time in…

skribbl.io

It’s basically pictionary – but online. And with a chat. Combine that with a video call, and you’ve got yourself a pretty fun Sunday afternoon!

Board games

Backgammon, Go Fish, Checkers… Basically any game I’ve ever played with my grandma? It’s probably on here. Now, how to get my gran to actually understand how to play these…

Game apps

I have Scrabble, Rummikub and Canasta games with friends – and none of those are quite the same as playing those games with my friends irl.. Well, you’ve got to work with what you can, right?

Netflix and Skype

Sure, Netflix and chill won’t quite be possible, but at least this way we’ll be able to watch holiday movies together, right?

What other ideas do you have for making the most of Christmas group activities online? I honestly need some inspiration, because, sure, we can open presents via Skype, but still – I would like something fun to do on New Year’s Eve, for example. Be sure to let me know below!
