Gifting in the age of Covid-19

May 29, 2020

While a lengthy lockdown might be set to be relaxed in the near future, a return to normality still looks like a distant prospect. Many of us will have people in our lives who we’d like to show our appreciation for, but social distance can often make doing so difficult. The right care package, especially if it comes as a surprise, can give someone who is stuck in the house on their own exactly the required lift.

Ideas for Gifts

So what might go into a coronavirus-appropriate gift package?

Chocolates

Just about everyone loves chocolate, which makes it excellent for gifting purposes. But you’ll need to make sure that it isn’t left in direct sunlight, especially during spells of roasting-hot weather. Either deliver the chocolate in person (while remaining a strict two metres away), or invest in suitably robust packaging.

Customised Mugs

Being housebound for months on end has gotten us all familiar with the mugs we’ve been using again and again. Injecting a little bit of novelty into those kitchen cupboards is sure to be worthwhile!

Home Exercise Equipment

Getting enough exercise is essential. Going for a run every day isn’t a substitute for the gym, and there’s only so much you can do with the help of the items you might find around the house. A pull-up bar or a kettle bell might be just the thing required to stay in shape!

Feeling Closer to Family

After two months in lockdown, many of us will have gotten up to speed with the myriad ways in which technology can help to break down the distance. Apps like Zoom and Microsoft Teams have become near-indispensable for both individuals and business, and you can take advantage of them for all kinds of social activity.

Decorating your house for special occasions, even if they’re being hosted remotely, is a great way to replicate the atmosphere of a real party, even if you haven’t invited anyone over. The same applies to any small gatherings you might decide to host in your garden once the new, laxer lockdown rules kick in. A reliable way to do this is with the help of helium balloons, inflated via a mobile canister.

For example, you might pick a certain night of the week to host a quiz with a few select friends. Multiplayer games are also a great way to bring people together, with Jackbox TV’s party packs being an incredibly accessible means of getting everyone started.
