15 Things To Do In Lockdown - told through The Office gifs

Now that a few states around Australia are going back into lockdown (eeek!), we want to be the bearer of good news and fun times! Here's a list interesting challenges to keep you entertained wherever you're spending lockdown - brought to you by our fave The Office moments 🤪

Do them with friends, or do them alone. Reference this whenever you’re feeling down, lonely or not sure what to do next! We have you covered. 🤍

1. Cook a new recipe from a different country every day

If we can't go to other countries, we'll just have to bring the countries to us! Not only will this test your cooking skills (and patience), but you'll get to learn about other cultures as well.

2. Write letters to someone in an aged care home.

I promise you, there is no better feeling than making someone's day and here is an easy and meaningful way to do it.

3. Do a Zoom Uber Eats Secret Santa

Who says it has to be Christmas to give gifts? Grab a group of friends or family over zoom. Each person randomly picks out a name from that group and they have to order something to be delivered to that house. Let's see if they know your taste!

4. Learn to do CPR

Every year around 30,000 Australians have a sudden cardiac arrest and only 10% of them survive. Would you know what to do if someone next to you collapsed? It takes 15 minutes to learn how to save a life.

5. Learn a physical skill

Headstand, juggling, pull-ups... whatever you thought was impossible for you to do, now's the time to learn it!

6. Do 10 minute exercises every day designed to fix your posture

I know you're slouching right now.

7. Finish that book you've been putting off

Replace the screen time with some good old fashioned reading time!

8. Find a new aesthetic for your room

Your room is your sanctuary, your escape from the world. Spend some time making it a physical space that brings you peace and happiness.

9. Buff up your LinkedIn profile or resume

Spend some of this time reflecting on your accomplishments so far and re-evaluating your career goals.

10. Upcycle an old clothing item

For the DIY lovers and the DIY triers.

11. Master a Tiktok dance

C'mon you know you've wanted to since they blew up in 2020. Maybe now's your chance to go viral 😉

12. Start learning a new language

Think its too late for you to learn a new language? It's never too late! Check out this interesting video on how you can scientifically learn a new language here.

13. Sell furniture or items you no longer need on Facebook marketplace

Get satisfaction from a deep clean and from selling things to people who really want it.

14. Play charades with a friend over zoom

You don't have to be alone in lockdown! Charades will get you laughing, moving, and screaming.

15. Do one random act of kindness a day

Transfer a friend a few dollars for takeaway coffee on you, DM someone random on IG about how much you love their page, message an old friend that you hope they’re doing well.
