- Video calls: Distance doesn’t have to keep you apart. Make use of apps such as WhatsApp, Viber, and Zoom to video call your friends and family. Perhaps you could use this as an opportunity to finally teach your parents how to use the video call function. We can all attest to seeing them blankly stare at you and repeat “hello, can you hear me?” while being too close to the camera as they tried to figure out the “new tech gadgets”. Make it a point to especially connect with family and friends who are overseas away from home.
- A night to reminisce: Reminiscing past positive experiences and good memories induce positive emotions and promote wellbeing. So make it a point to laugh with your friends and family about all the adventures you’ve been on, the times you’ve somehow managed to run into glass doors, and accidentally said “I love you” to the pizza delivery guy.
- Get ammi to share her most prized recipes with you: Maybe you’ll finally learn how to make chicken curry the way achchi used to.
- Make a photo collage: Get your creative juices flowing during daytime by coming up with a photo collage.
- Watch a movie together: It takes skills to text back “3...2...1” and hit “play” to watch the movie at the exact same time, but ongoing commentary has never been more fun.
- Gardening: If you’re dreading running out of topics to talk about, you could engage in gardening as a family. It is a form of stress relief and a way to connect with your environment.
- Storytelling: How many of us love to hear all the back-in-the-day stories from our grandparents? When you do call them up to check on them, request them to regale with an exciting story that makes you nostalgic for a time you never experienced first-hand.
- Family game night: ‘Nuff said.
