Hi, Brooke here, COO of Art Feeds. We’ve been making note of all the things NOT to do when we’re flattening the curve. And, yeah, it’s an introvert’s dream… for about 3 days. I noticed my 3 year old daughter was naming her veggie straws and carrying on conversations between theme and I think this might hit a little harder for her. So I did as I always do in stress- I started this list:
Things we CAN do during social isolation.
Record a fake podcast (Use your phone!)
Stock your closest Free Little Pantry
Try a new #ArtFeedsMakes video project (Use your supplies around the house!)
Practice your impression of your co-habitator
Try a handstand (use a wall!)
Taste test the different nut butters you stocked up on (use a spoon!)
Leave a note for your elderly neighbor with your phone number so they can text if they need anything
Figure out the many uses of dental floss
Plant some flowers to surprise yourself later
Read and book and share some wisdom about what you learned
Join Art Feeds Online and try out dozens of expressive lessons for kids
Notice something beautiful about a friend and speak it
Notice something beautiful about your space and name it
Cook something wholesome and notice how it feels in your body
Write a letter to someone at a nursing home
Organize your canned goods and see if you can spare any for a food drive
Walk and make up pretend names for the dogs in the neighborhood
Call your grandma
Hug a pillow
Doodle a self portrait
Re-watch your favorite movie from childhood
Remember your truest self as a child- what still applies to who you are today?
