Updated: Apr 2, 2020



With all this time at home here is a list of things you can do besides watching the news 12 hours a day for updates ! I will be adding to this list as NEW fun things to do appear !


1)Girls (or guys, or both) night on google hangouts ! Grab a beverage of your choice and some appys and stay connected ! We all need someone in times like this!


2)Virtual (or with the fam) board games night ! Download some fun games on your phone such as words with friends, uno, catan, and more. Then make a group phone call or video conference and let the games begin ! Another fun option for group chats is ZOOM, it works well and you can share a screen and Audio so you can play Jackbox TV from a far!
