How to choose a gift for quarantine
The best gifts are those that keep her busy and take her mind off the current situation.
Not everyone can stand sitting at home all day doing nothing but watching the news and becoming more depressed.
Try to get a gift that makes her relax, think, or relieve stress. Something that requires her full attention and keeps her occupied. And probably something that’ll last until this thing’s finally over with- whenever that’ll be.
Things to consider when deciding:
- What does she actually enjoy doing?
- What can she do for hours on end?
- Does she have any hobbies?
- Does she have hobbies she wants to learn?
Every girl is different, so you’ll have to do some thinking.
But hey- that’s effort, right? And that’s exactly why you’re here in the first place.
