While it hasn’t been easy being stuck at home (tomorrow is the 3 week mark for my family), this time of being together has definitely been a bonding experience. My family has been spending more time together, we’ve watched a lot of movies and TV together and have worked on a lot of projects together around the house. So, while being stuck at home isn’t ideal, I’m trying to look at the positive that this can bring to our families.
People all over are trying to do the same things. We’ve all seen the handprint art projects on Pinterest that have various themes depending on the holiday or time of year. Well, now people are doing handprint art to remember what this time was like for their families.
On Facebook and Instagram, people are showing off their creations. Some are just simple paper hand cutouts, one for each family member. Some have phrases, such as. “When the world stayed apart, this was my favourite place to be” or “During a moment of time in which the World needed everyone to stay apart…We stayed in together”. While others added in paw prints of the animals that are staying in with them.

While this is a trying time for all of us, it’s nice to see that families can look back on this time and remember what they did during this time of togetherness.
