Here are some ways to celebrate Diwali during this pandemic.
This time of the year is special for many people as everyone loves to gather and celebrate the festivities but the pandemic has made it difficult for us to celebrate like we used to. The spirit hasn’t dulled and though large gatherings and events have restrictions, there are still ways to celebrate this festival with just as much enthusiasm.
Here are some ways to celebrate Diwali this year, keeping social distancing and other safety precautions in mind:
Try DIY decoration hacks
Markets are usually crowded this time of the year and going out to shop in crowded spaces is not recommended. Utilize the decorative items in your house and take the help of tutorials online that can help you be creative.
Plan a digital Diwali party
Some people won’t be able to meet their family and friends due to travel restrictions and for safety reasons so organize a Diwali party on a video call and catch up with your close ones this way.
Organize an intimate party
If you live near or with your family members then plan an intimate gathering, make festive snacks and sweets at home and spend some quality time with them.
Send Diwali gifts via post
This year, not many people are visiting their friends and relatives to hand out Diwali gifts due to safety reasons. Order gifts online and send the hampers via post this Diwali.
Shop online
Everyone loves to shop for clothes, appliances, and home decor items during the festive season. Take advantage of online offers this year and order everything online to reduce the risk of catching infection outdoors.
Here are some ways to celebrate Diwali this year. Take this time to clean up and redecorate your houses, catch up with neighbors, and cash in on deals. Keep your loved ones safe by taking precautions.
