Making your celebration touchless

To help you make your celebration completely touchless, we’ve put together the tips below.

Video call celebrations

You’ve probably already been using video calls now and then to stay in touch with colleagues, family, and friends. In the current situation, video calls are a great alternative to hold a celebration that you can still enjoy. To help you with this, we’ve looked at the best tools for making video calls. And to make it even more fun, you could unpack the gifts you’ve bought or made for each other during the call. Then it’s almost as if you’re together after all!

Sending gifts

Surprise the person whose name you’ve drawn with a special gift that fits in their mailbox. It’s now possible to add a mailing address when you draw names – to send each other a thoughtful gift by mail. Make sure you send your gift on time, so that everyone taking part in the celebration has received something. If you live nearby, it might even be possible to discreetly leave the gift near their front door! Some webshops also give you the option to send someone a gift anonymously.

Drawing names live

While we are social distancing, we can’t really expect people to draw names from any kind of container. That’s why we’ve created the option of getting together online to draw names live. The organizer draws the names and you can immediately see whose name you’ve drawn. Make it more fun by having a video call during the draw so you can see each other’s reactions. Just make sure you don’t let anyone else know whose name you’ve drawn!

We hope these tips will help you turn social distancing into a party. Have fun with the draw and Stay Safe!
