Christmas celebrations don’t have to stop because of the pandemic, however, they do have to be more carefully thought out and planned. Here are some ideas on how you can celebrate Christmas during the pandemic.
Limit the Size of Christmas Gatherings
If you are planning to throw a little Christmas party to keep the festive spirit alive, then its best advised to keep the list of attendees short. Coronavirus is still very much a threat and large gatherings can pose the risk to everyone around. When making a list for your Christmas party, please ensure your guests haven’t travelled recently to any city with large number of COVID cases. Also, please asks your guests if they are experiencing any COVID-like symptoms, and ensure that, during the party or gathering, social distancing is maintained at all times.
Celebrate Christmas Online
The beauty of the internet is that everything is accessible! If you are too paranoid to attend family gatherings, plan an online Christmas party instead. Catch up with your loved ones on Zoom, Skype, or Google Meet, and play online games, sing Christmas songs together, or just talk. The best part about this is that one is not limited by geography, so family members outside of the city and even country can all join together for online Christmas party and have some fun, virtually of course!

Dress Up for Christmas

Although this year’s Christmas celebration will be small, don’t forget to take pictures to remember this unique occasion in the future. With all of these safety precautions in mind, we will be one step closer to ensuring a safe, healthy, and fun holiday season for all.
