Life as we know it has been postponed by the Coronavirus pandemic. We are stuck at home trying our best to flatten the curve without losing our minds. While we are very grateful to be hunkered down safely in our warm homes with our families, we all need a little something to keep us out of the fridge and away from the TV. The Elevate team is here to help! We’ve compiled a fun list of activities to keep you and your family engaged in life indoors and out (at a safe distance from others of course). You just might create a few fun family memories.
