Activities to do during isolation/lockdown

Kirsty from Raumati Beach

I did post about this a couple of weeks ago, but thought I would post again for those who may have missed it.

I started a group called self-isolation activities New Zealand on Facebook, in effort to help out people during these difficult times. There are now over 600 members keeping themselves and their families busy.

The page is evolving all the time with not only activities you can do, but also music to listen to, posts you can laugh at, and quizzes you can complete, but best of all it is a page for ages.

You are also welcome to post any ideas you have and to keep our communities smiling and busy!!

The page has many different ideas posted over the course of a day, so please take time to navigate through the posts, or click on the topics at the top of the page to search for ideas of interest.

I did try and post on Neighbourly after I last posted about this group, however, due to many ideas being on video, I was unable to do so.

All the best, take care and stay well, thank Kirsty

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
