Socially Distant Holiday Tips in Apartment Complexes During COVID-19
It’s no secret: Coronavirus (COVID-19) has changed many things about the 2020 year and continues to threaten holiday celebrations with its unwelcoming presence. While staying safe should be everyone’s highest priority, don’t allow this challenging year to cramp your holiday spirit! Yes, traditional holiday celebrations will be different and socially distanced—especially in apartment complexes—but there are still ways that you can embrace the season despite these challenges.
Here are some ways that you can stay safe in your apartment complex during this unprecedented, COVID-19 holiday season:
Virtual Celebrations
2020 has officially become the year of virtual celebrations! These community hangouts are an excellent alternative to in-person holiday parties, helping you celebrate the season with neighbors without risking exposure to COVID-19. Some fun holiday-themed celebrations include:
- Virtual cookie/baking party
- Virtual Christmas light tours
- Virtual holiday games/challenges
Share Your Favorite Holiday Recipes
If your apartment has a social media presence, make use of it! Post your favorite holiday recipe and encourage neighbors to participate. If you end up trying a shared recipe, tag the person who shared it.
Have a Holiday Watch Party
Contact your apartment office and a holiday watch party leading up to the holidays. Most of your neighbors and friends have access to a streaming platform that can host watch parties, making it a great way to “get-together” without in-person contact.
Decorate!
This year, embrace the holiday with decorations. Decorate your front door, patio, and windows to showcase your décor and get the rest of the neighborhood in the decorating spirit!
