Connecting with people can be hard during these uncertain times but it doesn’t have to be! With fun virtual Christmas party ideas, you can celebrate the festive season in style! Gather your loved ones for creative Zoom party ideas online and make this Christmas special. Whether you’re looking for Christmas party ideas for kids or team building activities, there are so many fun classes that are sure to help you reconnect with the people around you.

After all, there are still things to celebrate! Today, more than ever, it's important to stay connected with your friends and family. And sometimes, all it takes are Zoom activities to feel like you're all in the same room.  If you're looking for something new to try this year, try adding these Zoom party ideas to your list.

Right now, there are still plenty of things to do in Melbourne, Sydney and beyond, from online painting classes to virtual cocktail making classes due to being stuck in isolation or if you’re WFH. So, when the holidays roll in, and you’re looking for activities and ideas to fill the time and get you feeling festive, keep this in mind.

Christmas party ideas for kids

Children can enjoy the season of Christmas, even if they are unable to be out and about. For example, they can take online baking classes to learn a thing or two about being in the kitchen.

From gingerbread Christmas trees to Santa hat puff pizzas and little reindeer brownies, it’s more than enough to keep them busy and entertained! Christmas is all about the spirit of giving, so why not teach your children the same thing? Have them make cookies for their friends, cousins, or even the school to share the spirit of Christmas.

Another Christmas party idea for kids that doesn't involve kitchen work is Christmas storytelling time! It can be a simple reading activity or a puppet show, or if you want to go all out, you can make it into a full presentation. The online activity can show kids how to deliver lines or dress up in costume. And later that day, you adults can enjoy the show!

Virtual Christmas party ideas for the grown-ups

But what about the grown-ups? You're every bit as part of the Christmas season, too!  While this year may be different because of people choosing to be at home, you can still have a virtual Christmas party with friends and families, complete with all the delicious Christmas food you could ever want! 

Don't be afraid to think out of the box, either. Host online art classes such as a paint and sip online, and have a blast reminiscing about memories of Christmas past! We’ll make it easy for you by taking care of the materials needed for each activity.

These activities are a great way to get to know people to take your relationships to the next level. So, whether you're thinking of Christmas party ideas for work or your immediate family, consider hosting a paint and sip party and see what happens!

You can even have a prize for the best painting through popular vote. Set up a friendly Christmas competition, take pictures of the paintings, post them on your Instagram, and see which ones get the most likes.

Virtual team building activities for Christmas

It’s hard not to meet up in person with friends, family, and colleagues, especially when your team may work remotely from different parts of Australia or even overseas. That said, you can always see them virtually. And what better way to hold a year-end evaluation of your team’s achievements than with online team building activities? 

Get your team together for some virtual one-on-one time, and make your year-end evaluation more interactive with some holiday Zoom activities. Virtual parties let you do all the things you’d normally do at a company lunch or dinner, along with a fun activity. While you can't chat near the water cooler like before, you can certainly have something similar with an online party.

Why don't you go for online cooking classes? Your team can whip up a full meal and dessert to boot — for a full dining experience. The goal, of course, is to get everyone to participate so that you can all enjoy dining together over Zoom. You can also top it off with drinks. Or, if you would like to skip dessert and go straight to the fun stuff, our cocktail making classes would be the better choice.

Our virtual team building activities can also help get you in touch with your green thumb. Join a succulent terrarium making class, where your team can relax and unwind with picking succulents and decorative pebbles for your beautiful garden! The best part? You can add it to your collection of plant friends at home immediately! So, why not host an online Christmas party for you and your colleagues this year? 

How our online classes work

You’d be surprised at how easy and convenient our online classes are! All you have to do is take your pick, set the date, and sit back and relax until the event opens.

Don’t be overwhelmed by all the materials that may be required for the classes you choose. We’ve developed a sure-fire, easy-peasy system that will ensure you get what you need in the most convenient way possible.

We send the kits containing the materials for the activity so that the participants don't have to worry about getting it themselves. For online art classes, for example, we'll take care of the paint, brushes, and canvas. On the other hand, for the virtual cocktail-making classes, we'll take care of the ingredients and tools needed to concoct your special brew.

Once you and the rest of the participants receive our craft kits, all you have to do is log on to the event via Zoom and get the party started! Our local Australian instructor will also be present to guide you throughout the process. Most of our events are a lot of fun and suitable for people of all skill levels. You’ll have a blast making a craft with a group of friends, and by the end of the event, you’ll have a final project you can be proud of!

As a New Year’s Resolution, you may want to try hosting a Zoom party and see if you can find a new passion. And after seeing how much fun it is, you might just want to start planning your next Zoom party.  If you're finding it difficult to balance your busy social and professional life, the next best thing is to host a Zoom party with your colleagues, your kids, and the entire family. Christmas may be different this year, but it's never too late to get into the holiday spirit with our classes!
