In-person Match Activity Suggestions

Remember: Before you meet in person, your match must sign the COVID-19 Match Guidelines and Waiver. Each time you plan to meet with your Little, complete a self-check of symptoms and exposure and evaluate if it is safe to meet.

• Go for a bike ride at the Greenway
• Hike in Dunbar Cave
• Gardening: plant flowers or trees for someone or weed an elderly neighbor's garden
• Go fishing
• Draw using sidewalk chalk
• Look at cloud shapes to find animals and pictures

Virtual Match Activity Suggestions

Remember: We can stay connected without contact. Consistently checking in with your Little can give them an outlet to talk about their emotions and to experience a little normalcy in "seeing" you, their Big. 

• Explain or remind to your Little WHY you have to meet virtually. Talk about family members they love and are trying to protect by social distancing. 
• Play Go-Fish via FaceTime or Google Hangout
• Play an online game of Pictionary​​​
• Play charades via FaceTime or Google Hangout
• Watch a 5-minute TEDTalk and discuss what you learned
