Joy in the Times of Corona

This is a totally chaotic and crazy time.

No one knows how long this is going to last.And No one knows what to do in the extra time which has been suddenly given to them.Especially  kids.

There are so many little-little things which we would have  never focused upon , had there been no Corona situation . Cooking and baking was never so much fun, playing Scrabble and Ludo and was never on our daily charters,reading books was a long forgiven passion for few people....and so on. But thanks to ..*, all these joys are back in our lives.

Today i would like to contribute ,by sharing what i keep my kids and family busy in.

• Dance your heart out- There is no better way to exercise. It is fun cum fitness in the same platter. Whether or not you are a fan of dancing, give it a try. 
• Give a spiritual lessons to kids - With so much time at disposal, i planned to teach few religious stories and narrations to my kids this year. In fact i made them learn few Shloks, which definitely helped to create a positive aura around us.
• Bake like a Pro -You can also utilize this extra time to hone your cooking/baking skills. Most importantly , i asked my kids to bake along because it is totally safe to get them involved in cooking without fire activities.
• Play all those games,which u missed in your childhood -I dedicated a specific time slot each day to play games such as  charades, board games, Jenga, and numerous others with the entire family. 
• Watch your favorite movies and shows -This is the idle time you can indulge in binge-watching movies and shows that you have never seen before or may be those which you want to watch over and over again. We grabbed some popcorn and we were all set.
• Pick up a new skill - Drawing and painting has always been mine and my daughters' passion.But we tried to learn on a new skill this time. You can also try it..it would be like a breeze of fresh air.
• Read till your head is full of new imaginations-What is a better way than reading books with your loved ones to make the most of your idle time? Doing so, will not only bring you all together but also introduce you to a completely new world of life experiences. 
• Grow some greens -Being among plants and trees gives us a sense of relief. You along with your dear ones can get involved in a gardening activity to give back the most to nature. Planting new seeds, controlling weeds, adding some garden art, and others are a few gardening activities we all were engaged in. 
• Dress up like never before- You may be bored with your wardrobe and repeating the same look every now and then, but you can change it. Try to mix and match them with other clothes and accessories that are completely new to you. It is and will always be the  BIGGEST stress-buster of all times
• Grab your bicycles- Trust me, once you start riding your cycles with your family, it would become the most awaited time of your day. The fun , the freshness and the confidence..it is incomparable.
• Clean and Reorganize-If for the past few months you have been waiting for a weekend to clean and organize your kids’ room, living room or any other area of your house, now is that time. 

It is up to us, how we want to spent this time....! But remember, this time will never come back, so live it to the fullest and And keep washing those hands! 

Please share: What all are you guys doing? I’d love to hear. Take care of yourself.

Love.
