Coronavirus has forced everyone into their homes during the transition away from winter, in which most people have already been suffering through cabin fever.
Despite not being able to leave, there are still ways to get away from home virtually.
Columbus Zoo
The Columbus Zoo has posted livestreams for viewers to check in on their favorite exhibits at this time. The webpage informs viewers of prime activity time, as well as fun things to look for in the different exhibits.
Cincinnati Zoo
The Cincinnati Zoo offers similar livestreams but has also been streaming daily on their Facebook page, highlighting different animals and offering in-home activities for viewers to partake in.
Both local zoos are asking for donations at this time since the lack of admission revenue is causing an impact.
Broadway Livestreams
In response to the world staying at home, BroadwayHD made the call to offer a seven free-day trial and an option for a $8.99 monthly subscription to watch high definition Broadway musicals and plays from the comfort of your home.
Boonshoft Museum of Discovery
Boonshoft at Home is a service that the museum is offering to keep viewers engaged. The programs run at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. The morning program highlights science and the afternoon program is a virtual museum experience. This is perfect for children and curious adults alike.
Wright State University Recreation
WSU’s recreation center is offering online classes at regularly scheduled times, starting March 30. This includes yoga, circuit courses and high-intensity interval workouts. These classes are available for those of any level of experience.
Online church services
Many local churches have started the trend of streaming Sunday services and continuing bible study virtually. This is a great opportunity to explore different services offered in the area that are most suited to the viewer.
Aside from these local activities, the internet offers many options of remote entertainment in this day and age. Everything one might need to socialize in quarantine is at the tip of our fingers.
