What to do at home for 21 days
Give us your ideas what you will be doing over the next three weeks.
Following the President’s address on the new restrictions and lockdown from March 26 at midnight which will last 21 days to April 16, the community will have to keep positive and find means and ways to be pro-active.
Being at home for three weeks will always put pressure on the households to stay creative and active over the three weeks.
Many households and organisations will now suddenly have to change their behaviorism and habits.
The community will have to keep themselves safe and work according to the restrictions placed on them in order to overcome one of the most dreadful viruses that have put a clampdown on the world.
How to keep safe, active and creative at home
• Educate your family members, especially the children, what the reasons are and why they have to be at home.
• Work out programmes for your household to keep save and put strict hygiene measurements in place which they can after these trying circumstances still apply for the rest of their lives.
• Put a working schedule out for each of the family members. For instance who will be making breakfast, lunch or dinner. Who will feed the pets at home, washing and cleaning of your own room, and gardening and so the list goes on for each household.
• Keep active by following on online exercise programme for yoga, or walk and jog around your property or play hand tennis. These can all be done in a confined space. You can even let your children follow a pattern in the home by taping out some guidelines on the floor and let them follow it throughout the house with activities to be done at certain points.
• Play outdoors with your children, dogs. Build a tent outside and go camping or start a vegetable garden.
• Read all those books you have been piling up for another day and use this time to read to your children.
• Listen to music and keep the radio on during the day for important announcements and for some background music.
• Unpack all your old CDs and have a music evening with your family and share your favourite music with your children.
