Birthday celebrations in lockdown
I’m a generation and I love birthdays.
Love my birthday and even more love organizing birthday celebrations for my loved ones. There is nothing like this day of the year when it is possible or even necessary to celebrate the very fact that we came to this world and thank for our lives which are precious and so not taken for granted. In recent months, since the bloody corona changed the rules of the game here, organizing a birthday celebration has become quite a challenge especially on days of closure. I’m here to give you some ideas that helped me rejoice and delight my relatives in the days of the Coronavirus. The ideas are all simple, meet the limits of quarantine and most importantly are joyful! Needless to say, you can apply them all on birthdays or any other happy occasion on days when they are correct, healthy and virus-free, so recommend keeping them for you to continue.
Congratulations collection (from at least 2 meters away)
The first joy may sound a bit corny to you but there is no as exciting as a collection of greetings and congratulations from people who love. Getting good words is always fun and motivating and encouraging and you’d be surprised to find out, your loved ones need it more than you think. Contact their friends and family long enough in advance and ask them to send you personal greetings to the reveller. If you want to make the collection of best wishes even more exciting, expand the circle of blessings, reach the people closest to you love and appreciate but they do not welcome that he would expect to be blessed for his birthd
ay.Childhood friends, school teachers, military commander, co-workers, boss, famous character he loves and more… You c
an use Facebook and snoop on its list of friends, ensuring you find welcomes there that you probably haven’t thought of. To make the collection more personal and make sure the greetings are not repeated you can direct the greetings with directed questions like – what do you like best about your birthday child? Tell your unforgettable experience together. Which song reminds you most of your birthday boy? If he didn’t work what he does, what would he be? And…

ners: Ask the greeters to send you the greetings in the video, the collection of blessings can be projected on the birthday itself and show the reveller continuously. If you want to spend a little more, you can connect all the videos in any simple editing software or video editing app and add photos of the reveller from the past year.
Advanced submission suggest
ion: You can request your written greetings and edit them in a photo album. There are a variety of websites that allow you to edit digital albums with high-quality printing. I personally love working with WOW and find their editing interface the most convenient and simple yet rich in design options and also prices and service they are just excellent. Downstairs I added pictures of such an album that I made for my mother who celebrated 50th last March just as the first coronavirus season began.
If you’re a DIY type and aren’t afraid to “get your hands dirty” you can make and design your own greetings and photos yourself. I have no doubt that both options will be amazing and your precious will be very excited about them and appreciate your investment. If you choose the option of making such a congratulatory album, I strongly recommend that you start working on it long enough in advance so that you are not stressed, at least a month and a half before their birthday. Collecting greetings takes at least a week, people are busy and it takes them a while to free up greetings (don’t be shy about being snooty and remembering them), I would leave another two weeks, from personal experience I took advantage every 15 minutes to move forward a little further in shaping the album and so the work on it was done leisurely. Of course, you can also devote a full day or two to it and do it faster than I do.
“If Muhammad does not reach the mountain, the mountain will reach Mu
hammad”, this sentence is relevant to most of the following ideas –
Bring your favorite restaurant to the home, order a delivery of their favorite dishes and set up a festive table in their honor (on the theme of table editing we will elaborate below).If you w
ant to go for a slightly more festive and special delivery, you can order a pampering breakfast tray, a double table as in the examples I will attach to you below.
Many businesses have recently adapted to the coronavirus reality and offer a variety of super cool deliveries that allow for an experience of self-preparation at home (a kind of work in the eyes but of the good kind). You will receive all the produkts required for preparation in an orderly and perfect manner and you can feel as if you have done it yourself and thus enjoy doing and take pride in the result. From France some equal examples I found like a homemade cocktail making kit, a homemade pizza making kit that wouldn’t shame an Italian pizzeria and amazing cookies.
Further to the previous idea you can take it one step further and challenge yourself in preparing a meal invested in a chosen concept that your revellers especially like (sushi, Italian, Indian, health dishes, etc.). All the preparation work can be cohesive and enjoyable if you integrate all the members of the household into it. Even if you’re not a big cook, find appropriate recipes on Instagram or online and go for it… Here, too, she recommends investing in editing the table and design and adapting them to the chosen concept of the meal you will cook. On the whole subject of design and editing, we will expand later.
And we got to my favorite part, the décor. God is totally in the details and they’re totally the ones who will make all the difference. Here’s how to make your TA or dinner invitation an unforgettable birthday celebration and differentiate them from a regular meal.
- Prepare a festive menu with the meal specifications and design it according to the chosen concept. You can use the templates that are plentiful on Pinterest or draw and write in your own handwriting.
- Set the most festive table there is, it’s time to take out the white map, the set reserved for Seder night because a birthday is a holiday for everything. Recommends adding candles and flowers to the table that easily upgrade and give a romantic and special atmosphere. Of course, you can use things that exist in the house, a beautiful plant or flowers from the garden.
- If you choose a concept for a meal, mix it in the table design. For example, if you chose an Italian meal confest, which included Italian flag-colored digloss with the names of the dishes (you can easily make with a toothpick that exists in each house), a slot map will add to the rustic atmosphere, you can add jars with pasta and in the background of course play matching music that will make you feel minimal in a restaurant in Rome.
Picnic a mile near your home
If you feel you have to get out of the house and get some air, it’s time to find lovely corners within a mile of your home. Those of you who live in Moshav/Kibbutz believe that this option will be simpler to perform but also the urban one you will be able to find quite a few parks, playgrounds and ventilated places. I would recommend thinking of a quiet and secluded location where you can enjoy privacy and get into the picnic atmosphere easily. Remember everything we’ve been through before, invest in the details. Make you a photogenic picnic basket, take wine and glasses with you, a speaker for fun music and of course a picnic blanket/mat if you can be studded with what’s good.
Those who also want to use shipping here, there are many businesses that offer a delivery of a ready-made picnic basket packed with goodness, you will see some examples attached.
An enriching and enjoyable digital worksh
op – recently online there are a variety of workshops that are delivered atZOOM, allowing learning and experience in almost every area of interest, cooking and baking, makeup, painting, macrame and many other good things. You can find out with your reveller what workshop he could have interested in and purchase it for him as a gift or to participate together with all the members of the household in such a workshop.
I personally am dying to experience some of these, especially the Macrame workshop of his song Zoom:
And if all that isn’t enough, get some more cool ideas you can put together in the 90th minute.
- Arrange the revellers’ house or room with balloons and hang moving pictures that will make them remember good and beautiful moments. You can stretch a rope or wire in the house from corner to corner with developed or printed pictures on it.
- “Look for the hoard”- Your gifts will be hidden to revellers around the house and give them clues to help them search. You can upgrade your search by adding tasks that challenge them and which they’ll need to do to get the following hints.
- Home Spa Day – Organize your bedroom with candles and relaxing background music, spread a good smell and treat your revellers with a pampering massage with rich cream.
- We organized a birthday party at Zoom – match with the relatives and friends in advance and so you will have a birthday party in Zoom, preferably by surprise. Recommends preparing good music, greetings and activity in advance in order to have content for the conversation. You can have a quiz about the reveller or funny tasks you will pre-prepared and you can also broadcast the greeting video from the beginning of the post.
- Go to the movies or the theater, just don’t, bring them to the living room. There are theaters that put on entire shows online so you can watch a show together or make popcorn and enjoy a screening of a good movie.
So.. Hope the post was helpful and gave you an idea for an unforgettable celebration. The most important thing is that you get out of the corona routine and your pajams and make your precious birthday a special day. If you have any other ideas for celebration during the quaran
tine, tell me in the comments.
