Read on to find out all about the creative remote team activities you and your colleagues can enjoy this holiday season! 

Spritz up your life 

One of the main ingredients of any great Christmas party is usually alcohol. If you thought you'd have to leave cocktails out of your celebrations this year, you'd be wrong! ClassBento is home to a tempting selection of virtual cocktail-making classes that will have you and your team mixing and shaking a series of delicious drinks while soaking up fascinating cocktail trivia at the same time. You can sample exotic spritzes from around the world, try some tantalizing tequila-based beverages, or get into the spirit of the season with a Christmas-themed cocktail class. 

Whichever workshop you go for, you and the members of your team will each receive a carefully curated DIY cocktail kit to help you prepare the perfect drink. At the end of your session, toast your virtual glasses and share your hopes for a happy new year.

Whip up your own tasty treats 

You can level up your online cocktail classes with tasty bites for your team to enjoy. Our beginner-friendly live streaming workshop, courtesy of Hipcooks, will instruct you on the fine art of creating candied nuts and chai spiced cocktails that will be a nice pairing for the cocktails you make. This virtual happy hour is a wonderful way to connect with your colleagues in a laidback but lively virtual experience that will lift your spirits just in time for Christmas. 

The fun doesn't have to stop there. We have a vast range of online cooking classes that your team will love to sample. You can step outside of the Christmas theme and make pizza or guacamole with the perfect margarita - why not?! Cooking up something tasty together is a wonderful way for a work team to end the year together, because it's both fun and nourishing. At the end of class, you'll get to enjoy eating your creations and chatting together. Team bonding with snacks for the win! 

Hand-crafted holiday decorations

You and your remote teams may never have had the chance to get crafty together or create something fabulous outside of the office. It’s easy to gather up your team online with creative Zoom holiday party ideas. Not only are these sessions immersive and fun, but you will also come away creating something you may never have made time to do before. You could even come up with your own Christmas decorations or cute hand-made gifts to give your loved ones around the tree. 

From DIY paper marbling and online pottery classes, to macrame, needle felting, and even succulent kokedama making, we have fascinating and festive workshops to get your creative juices flowing. We also have some special Christmas-themed Zoom activities to try your hand at, from painting your own Christmas ornaments through to making Christmas trees using Japanese techniques. 

Paint while sipping champagne 

It's never too late to take up painting, especially if you get to ply your brush while sipping your favored vintage for inspiration. Well, guess what - our paint and sip online classes provide the perfect option if you're after crafty virtual holiday party ideas!

Led by fun, friendly, and highly knowledgeable professional painters, these online painting classes will soon have you tapping into your inner artist. They also come with DIY painting kits so you can dive right in once you join your class on Zoom without sourcing your own supplies and canvas.

You will be able to enjoy your favorite drink while you paint and socialize while you put brush to canvas. It’s a relaxing time of learning and getting lost in the brushstrokes while enjoying the company of your teammates.

Bonding over botany 

Introducing plants into your life is a great way to tap into our appreciation for nature. Plants also make very pleasing gifts for family and friends, adding welcome pops of color inside spaces. Zoom activities centered on terrariums, kokedama, or potted plants can help you bring nature's beauty indoors. 

You can create your own closed terrariums to proudly display at home because miniature gardens can be just as magical as life-size ones. Or why not spruce up your walls with some DIY moss wall art for a vibrant splash of green? You can even learn the fine art of flower arranging or create your own dried flower wreath to hang on your front door for Christmas.  

Prepare your own sumptuous seasonal feast 

Christmas is a time to eat, drink and be merry - and all three things should definitely be included in your selection of Zoom holiday party ideas. If you're keen to concoct some culinary delights with your co-workers, we have some tantalizing Christmas-themed online cooking classes to sample. For instance, you can indulge your sweet tooth by baking Italian Christmas cookies, with the assistance of our live streaming class led by Chef Laura from Teaching Table. 

Or get ambitious as remote teams by cooking your way through a five-course Greek Christmas banquet! This interactive two-and-a-half-hour workshop will instruct you on the preparation of Cretan cheese pies, zucchini-stuffed roast chicken, authentic Greek coffee, and other delights. 

Planning a lockdown Christmas party can be easier than you imagined, thanks to our wide variety of Zoom holiday party ideas. Whether you decide to go for Christmas-themed cocktails, fun-filled crafting sessions, or a paint and sip online workshop, your team is sure to get in the holiday spirit.
