Free Virtual Wine Night Invitations For Isolation Parties

by

Virtual parties have become the only way we can stay connected to family and friends. We decided what is a party without an invitation right? These invitations are easy to save and e-mail. You may even want to go old school and send them via snail mail. No matter which way you the idea is the same. Invite friends and or family together to share in a gathering. It is not just about socialising it is about giving each person something to do, something to prepare for and for some of us, a reason to get out of our Pajama’s.

Online wine sales have sky rocketed and whilst I think most “wine drinkers” have stock in the cupboard we have included a few online siets you can buy from. Did you know Amazon has Wine?

Another great idea is to grab a wine a month box for you and a friend and then share in the wine tasting together at the same time via ZOOM or facetime.  But you really don’t have to be tasting the same wine to be connected in the moment. Perhaps you have different bottles of wine but you can still give notes and if it sounds good the other person can order that next time.

Sometimes Wine tasting tours, groups and gatherings are actually nothing to do about the wine and these online parties are no different, just a reason to get together is these crazy isolation times.

Looking for something a little more fun? Check out these Wine Tasting Games.

Save the files below and share the Invitations to your friends.

Hanukkah Unit Studies for Kids

Learning about Hanukkah is important for people of all faiths as a reminder that December isn’t just about Christmas and that their are many other important holidays that happen during this time. Hanukkah unit studies can give you ideas for incorporating the holiday into your holiday studies that happen in December, or to use at home for learning about people of different faiths.

Homeschool Superfreak has a lot of basic ideas for how to build a Hanukkah unit study, as well as FAQs about what Hanukkah is and why it is celebrated. This list is a good stargint point but doesn’t include all the details you’ll need. For example it says you can play the dreidel game but doesn’t explain how to do that or why it’s important. (If you need that information, this post from Mama Smiles is a good source.)

Teachers Pay Teachers has lots of great lesson plans and activities if you’re willing to pay a little bit to get some good content. Two I really like are this Hanukkah PowerPoint presentation from Shelia Melton, which provides a good overview of traditions, food and the history of Hanukkah; and a virtual field trip to Jerusalem from MagiCore, which includes lots of videos showing the city and activities like playing dreidel, drawing a menorah and making latkes. It’s a Google Drive folder and also includes writing activities and more for kids in second to fifth grade.

Kids Activities Blog has some simple printables with facts about Hanukkah and things kids can color in like a Star of David, sufganiyots (jelly doughnuts) and a menorah. These are great for learning the basics.

Homeschool Giveaways has a printable ebook about Hanukkah complete with questions kids can answer after they read. This would be a good one for older kids with good reading comprehension.

NurtureStore’s Hanukkah unit study includes a printable mini book, tons of crafts, as well as math and writing activities. I love the dominoes game that’s part of the unit.
