COVID Safe Activities Week One
Unfortunately, it looks like COVID-19 cases are ramping up this fall, and we can expect to be extra cautious again this year to protect ourselves and our families and friends. Nick wants to publish some ideas each week for fun, COVID safe activities. Staying busy while staying safe can be fun!
Nick loves being able to have some guy time, and with football finally back this year, what better excuse is there? Having a couple of vaccinated friends come over to cheer on your favorite team and eat some tasty food is a wonderful way to have some safe fun.
Nick’s favorite team is the Denver Broncos, but he enjoys the quality time spent with friends even more than the game. Recently Nick invited his friends Alex and Jonas over to have a game day BBQ. Everyone had so much fun and Nick was very happy to be able to spend the weekend with friends and catch up. Go Broncos!
Another good idea for some COVID safe fun is to get outside while the weather is still nice! Nick enjoys going to the Benson Sculpture Park in Loveland to look at the sculptures. The park is beautiful, and Nick especially loves all the animal sculptures. Walking outside is a great way to keep your distance from others while still enjoying some fresh air.
Nick loves going bird watching with his job coach Audrey and her family. Bird watching with Audrey is a tradition Nick has enjoyed for years. Nick’s favorite part about bird watching is when furry friends come along for the fun, even if it gets a little crazy! Walking your dogs with family or friends is a great way to get some exercise and stay safe.
With mask mandates returning and colder weather heading this way, Nick plans to post weekly with new COVID safe activities for everyone to enjoy, so be sure to like Awesome in Action on Facebook and follow his blog for more ideas!
COVID-19 Activities for All Abilities
It’s tough to be living during a pandemic. 2020 was a hard year for Awesome in Action to do outreach and community based activities. But there are lots of activities you can do while staying safe and socially distancing. COVID doesn’t mean you can’t have fun, it just looks a little different right now.
When you are a high risk individual you have to think about activities you can do that are fun but also safe. Thankfully there’s plenty to do to keep busy!
Taking a walk is a healthy way to have fun while staying socially distant. You can walk with friends or by yourself.
Watching a movie you love at home is a great way to enjoy time alone or socially distancing with friends.
Listening to music passes the time and can stimulate your brain and help you enjoy time inside.
Cooking and enjoying or sharing food you make can help you develop healthy habits and allow you to activate your senses. You can even deliver meals to friends or family and drop them at the door.
Arts and crafts let you express yourself creatively while staying safe inside.
Working on your business by publishing updates, keeping up with social media, and brainstorming ideas can be productive and lucrative.
Call your friends and family and check in on them, everyone is struggling right now so a call from you might make their day!
Remember, stay safe and wear your mask!
