They have been there through both good and bad times. They let you be yourself, give you emotional support, and are your favourite person to go on adventures with. It’s your best buddy! This person is one of the most important people in your life, and your best friend should be recognised. That’s why we celebrate National Best Friends Day on June 8!
If you are quarantined with your best friend, you can celebrate this fun event together. If you can’t be together for this holiday, here are some fun ways you can still show how special your relationship is.
Brunch At Home
Open a bottle of champagne and make some waffles for this virtual brunch. Join a Zoom meeting with your best friend to find out what’s going on. Use the same background so it looks like you’re both dining in style.
Make A Slideshow Of The Two Of You
Being nostalgic together will make you both feel good and remind you of how close you are. Make a slideshow of your favourite times spent together and give it to each other as a class assignment.
Visit A Virtual Museum As A Group
Spend a night learning about the culture and travelling the world with your best friend without leaving your couch. Take turns choosing museums to visit virtually and decide together on your favourite works of art. Here is a list of free virtual tours of museums that you can take.
Send Homemade Cards
Make a card for your best friend by getting out your coloured paper and letting out your inner artist. Anyone can buy a greeting card at the store, so why not show your best friend how special they are? To make someone smile, all you need is something to colour with, a nice message, and their address.
See A Movie
Do you and your best friend have Netflix, Disney+, or Amazon Prime? You can watch a movie over the phone or on Skype. It’s a fun and interactive way for people far apart to share the same experience.
Choose a movie that you both like or that you saw in the theatre together. Extra points if you both keep quoting it!
Take A Class On How To Work Out Online
You might not be able to go to a spin class with your best workout partner, but you can still work out at home! Put on your coolest workout clothes, get on FaceTime, and go to YouTube to see what kinds of online fitness classes are out there.
Get Crafty
Have you done any creative things while you were in quarantine? Make something for your partner in crime to show off your new skill. Don’t like crafts? Make your friend a bracelet with their nickname or a joke between the two of you written on it. This kit has everything you need.
