ONLINE EVENTS FOR FAMILIES

For those of us experiencing the ongoing coronavirus lockdown, we may have some extra time on our hands. If we use that time wisely – for example, by attending online events that interest us – then we can put ourselves in a better position to come out of this crisis with new skills, new confidence, and new social connections to help us get where we want to go. Online events are effective for staying motivated, connecting with like-minded peers, and keeping up with the latest trends in whatever industry or activity we are interested in.

There are tons of opportunities on the web to make lasting personal connections and to enrich your personal knowledge and skillset with online events. Instead of using the web for mindlessly browsing social media (we all do it) or listlessly jumping from vapid YouTube video to video, consider utilizing your time more effectively by investing in your future with an online course. Whether you've been thinking about updating your marketing knowledge to help with your small business or learning how to take beautiful photographs, there is so much growth possible with the resources available on the web – many of them totally for free.

To begin looking for online events that would attract your interest, WikiDo is a good place to start. It features an eclectic and extensive assortment of online meetups across a span of interests, including fitness, meditation, dance parties, karaoke sessions, weekly prayer groups, and trivia nights. Of course, you are always free to organize your own events, either for you and a small group of friends and family or ones that are open to the public.

If you are interested in joining or creating an online meetup, here are a few of the most popular tools:
• Facebook Streaming. If you are already one of the billions of members worldwide, you may have seen an online group holding a streaming session on the platform. The design is intuitive and easy to use, even for the non-tech-savvy.
• Zoom. The popularity of this online meeting platform exploded following the economic shutdown. The major advantage of Zoom is that it facilitates large meetings of dozens of people for free.
If you decide to test the waters of an online event, treat the commitment like you would with a real-life, in-person meeting. Don't skip it if you are truly interested in the material being discussed. Although an online event may be free, consider chipping in a small donation if you appreciated it out of good etiquette.
