Enjoy bonding moments with family at home with these fun activities
The new normal has had everyone developing new habits that will keep us safe. While we can now already leave our houses, we can’t deny how nice it is to also stay at home with the family. To make it more fun, check out these activities that you can enjoy together.
Workout Sessions
Health is everyone’s top priority these days. So why not make working out a family affair so you can make sure everyone gets their daily dose of exercise? There are quite a number of online workout videos you can choose from - from low impact cardio workouts to dance exercises to Tai Chi and yoga. There are coaches and trainers who also offer sessions through video streaming. Try them all to spread the endorphins around!
Movie Night
Whip out your movie streaming subscriptions and gather the family in the living room. Choose a light-hearted or a comedy flick that you all can enjoy together after dinner. Don’t forget to bring out binge-watching snack favorites like Jack ‘n Jill Piattos!
Game Night
Having a good laugh from chats and jokes with the family is probably one of the best parts of hanging out together. Why not make socials extra fun by hosting a family game night? Try simple activities like guessing games and do topics that everyone knows about — like asking questions about each other, memories you’ve shared together, and common interests. Or battle it out on the table, with classic board games like Monopoly or Cluedo, which are now created around several different themes. You can even stretch it out for weeks to make it a recurring event! You have a perfect game night buddy in Jack ‘n Jill Chippy and Pic-A.
Make bonding moments with ‘ate’ and ‘kuya’ even more fun with your favorite Jack ‘n Jill snacks.
Jamming Sessions
We all love a karaoke party! So if you don’t want to make too much noise in the neighborhood, go ahead and make your own music using your own instruments. Play some of your parents’ favorite songs and your own as well and fill the day with singing and laughter. If you’re not much of a musician, just sing along to your family favorite songs from music streaming apps or your trusted CD’s and even cassette tapes!
Pops of Fun Dessert or Snack Challenges
Let your creativity and (very minimal) culinary skills shine with themed dessert or snack challenges. With Jack ‘n Jill Nips Chocolates you can add pops of fun and make plain old bananas, pancakes, toasts, and other treats extra colorful! Challenge each other to incorporate Nips Chocolates in your everyday snacks! The goal is to make snacking and bonding both fun and exciting for everyone in the family. You may even give rewards to the family member that has the best snack mix idea by giving fun prizes like a “No Chores Day” pass.
DIY Projects
There are a number of DIY ideas online you can try with your whole family. From quirky crafts made from upcycled items, beginner-friendly baked goods that the family can try their hand on using Happy Grains, to 90s inspired home videos. Whatever you think will interest the rest of the family, make it happen today. A little bit of research can go a long way!
It’s always so much fun when you’re experiencing new recreational activities with your loved ones. Even if you’re no longer a kid, you can still laugh along and be playful with your parents and siblings even without stepping out of the house. Make the most of your time together and make every moment fun.
