Feeling a Little Stir Crazy? Here are 4 Home Entertainment Ideas to Try:
You’re probably very familiar with the current state of the nation: the lockdown has been extended for ANOTHER TWO WEEKS. Granted the first couple mornings were greeted with late snoozes, breakfast in bed, followed by pleasant chats with the family and some series binges in front of the TV. Now as we enter the second stage, tempers are starting to flair and cabin fever is fast settling in.
However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. So, instead of walking on eggshells or breaking a few in an attempt to beat the infamous social media egg challenge, here are some must-have entertainment ideas to make the lockdown a lot more bearable.
1. A virtual get together
What’s the first thing you associate with a get-together? Music, games and a ton of fun with friends, right? Well, since going out to find a good vibe is out of the question, best bring the party to you.
Google Hangouts is proving to be quite the hit during lockdown. The app allows you to engage with up to twenty-five friends at a time. Google Hangouts enables “shared experiences” with many playing games like Charades or Pictionary or simply watching TV together.
So, while social distancing is still very much a reality in the outside world, socialising, connecting and creating memories with friends and family from the comfort (and safety) of your couch is very much a possibility.
2. Nothing beats quality telly time
Arguably one of the most used items in your home is the TV, made even more apparent when your access to the outside world is cut off. We spend hours mesmerised at character developments, dumbfounded by intricate plot twists, or feverishly pushing buttons on gaming controllers to reach that coveted checkpoint; all the while still managing to sneak in a few snacks while the entertainment consumes us.
However, there is one thing to make this experience even sweeter. The LG OLED TV series is renowned for its spectacular visual and sound technology which makes for the perfect cinematic and gaming experience. Complete with its virtually no motion blur feature, it’s the ideal screen for gaming and watching sports. Essentially, it’s an all-in-one TV for movies, series binges and gaming marathons to help beat any type of boredom during the wait for sweet freedom.
3. Get up and get active
Now while the sound of vegging out in front of the TV sounds like pure bliss, it’s actually the ideal time to start working on your bikini body. Whether you’re a fitness fan, or someone who has used the “I’m too busy to exercise” line one too many times, there’s no more excuses to be made.
Regardless of your reason for wanting to work out, there’s some exciting workout options online. More and more content creators, studios and influencers are posting their simple home workout routines online for free to help keep people fit, healthy and busy. Find your inspiration and get moving!
4. Awakening your inner foodie
If you’ve ever found yourself thinking “next, we’ll be adding…” or “this would pair so great with…” you should probably use this time to brush up on your culinary skills. With restaurants, coffee shops and speciality delis all falling victim to the shutdown, now’s the perfect time to venture into the pantry, explore the potential of combining different ingredients and turn your kitchen into a cook-with-me paradise.
To get you started on your food journey, LG has recruited local chefs to share some of their most loved recipes that are sure to make any foodie weak at the knees.
There’s comfort knowing that we are all together in this time of crisis and that however we choose to spend the time – however productive – we will emerge with new memories, possibly new skills and even an ab or two.
