...and turn those lockdown blues upside down

Nourishing, even during lockdown | |
|
| Let’s be honest: living under lockdown - while important - is getting a little monotonous. How many loaves of banana bread can one really make? Rather than mindlessly scrolling through streaming services on the hunt for the one box set you haven’t binged yet, we’ve rounded-up our favourite, inspiring reads and activities that are helping us appreciate our time, headspace and creativity in new ways: For the whole family, our friends at The Guardian Foundation are offering a free workshop to help your children learn about the news, including how to spot fake stories and a behind-the-scenes peek into The Guardian. If you’re looking for ideas to freshen-up that Friday night pub quiz, why not try The Great British Art Quiz, and swot up ahead of our sell-out masterclass with Guardian art critic Jonathan Jones? If art isn’t your jam, you can attempt making some actual jam, and indulge in some of Felicity Cloake’s brilliant cooking tips in preparation for her enticing how-to workshop. Frustration might come easily, but keep in mind the rich opportunities at hand to discover something new about yourself - like your capability to shape a compelling story in our screenwriting workshop with John Yorke (back by popular demand!). And finally, why not put your storytelling skills to the test by sharing your lockdown experiences with our podcast team - you might just be featured in an upcoming episode... | |
