Being stuck at home has been kind of difficult for everyone. Luckily, we have technology to keep us busy and connected with others. You can watch your favorite movies, TV shows, and play video games. And we can still "hangout" with friends and "attend classes" through video chat. So what is something fun you have done while being under quarantine with all of your technology?

I've had tons of online chats with friends, watched movies while calling people, and just stayed connected as I could with people. I think some social medias don't actually connect people, so I think picking what formats you interact with people on is important to. I'm happy this site exists, because its an example of a social forum that actually harbors interaction instead of just aggregating posts at you endlessly.
For me I've been exploring other worlds or locations. I play video games on my playstation and it allows me to go to other places. I have the Uncharted games and they allow you to go to different places around the world and hunt for treasure. When I'm feeling super I swing around New York as Spider-Man in the Marvel Spider-Man game. I also watch movies with my family. We've watched Batman Begins, Ant-man and the Wasp, and others. My sister and I are also getting back into Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV series.
I tried watching painting tutorials on YouTube and adding my own twist. Plus my friend and I try to challenge each other's art each week. We do 'only use one color' or "incorporate a specific object' and it's been a fun challenge
Zoom calls with my friends!!
I have spent many hours talking to my friend on Marco Polo!
My friend's online birthday party!
Backyard movie night!!
My family has gotten together at least twice through Zoom, WebeX, and HouseParty! (We used Zoom and Webex on the same day) We have had a lot of fun together!
Planned a virtual birthday party for a second grader.
Building playlists and stations on Pandora.
Binge watching disney plus, and doing zoom calls with my church group and weekly call with my friends!
Since you can't attend play rehearsals and school musical performances have been canceled, I have been doing theatre online. The spring play I am in figured out how to do rehearsals online and one of my favorite theatre companies is offering free online acting classes for kids ages 11 and up. It's been really fun being able to still do one of my favorite activities from my bedroom.
