Creating a colorful masterpiece from the comfort of your own home is a wonderful way to connect your colleagues, while also helping them relax and unwind after a long and busy year. 

With our paint and sip online workshop, led by a professional artist from Painting and Vino in San Francisco, you and your team will be taken step by step through a beginner's painting class while sipping your favorite beverages at the same time. This fun and immersive session will stir up your creative urges and teach you a wealth of artistic tips.

At the same time, this virtual art class provides a relaxed and meditative space for remote teams to reflect on the successes of the past year and their hopes for the future. 

When you sign up, you and your co-workers will each receive a well-stocked craft kit complete with five different paints, a brush set, a disposable apron, a palette, and an 11x14 stretched canvas. The only things you will need to provide for yourselves are some water to rinse your brushes, paper towels for cleaning up any spillages, and of course glass, mug, or bottle of your favored drinks, whether it's wine, coffee, or a fragrant herbal tea.

Before you know it, you and your team will be creating colorful paintings which you can display proudly in your homes among your Christmas decorations – and in your home office for the months that follow.

Cook up a storm in time for Christmas Day

We all know that one of the best things about Christmas is all the sumptuous delicacies we get to eat as part of the festivities. With that in mind, we have a smorgasbord of tantalizing online cooking classes for you to choose from, which will make the perfect remote team activities for a virtual Christmas party.  

These classes include the likes of a Private Baking Class at Home, courtesy of Sour Flour in the San Francisco Bay Area. Led by an experienced baker who can teach you all the tricks of the trade, this online workshop will help you get 'down with the dough'. Whether you have a fondness for cookies, freshly baked bread, or plump pastries, you will soon acquire the know-how you need to prepare them at home. This online baking class is a thrilling hands-on virtual experience that is sure to bond you and your co-workers as you strive to produce that perfect loaf. 

Alternatively, you and your team may fancy something a little more exotic to fill out your festive feast this year. How about taking our Greek Cooking at Home: A Taste of Greece online cookery class? Brought to you by skilled home cook Kelly, from The Hellenic Odyssey, this Zoom cooking class will guide you through the preparation of five mouthwatering Greek appetizers, which are sure to prove popular on your Christmas tables.

Some of the items on the menu include pita bread, which you will bake from scratch; eggplant dip; and baked feta parcels. Not only will you get to acquire some amazing new culinary skills with your team, but you will also get to savor the delicious flavors of the Mediterranean along the way. 

Of course, there are also many more online cooking classes you can choose from while WFH, whether you're keen to learn classic Italian dishes, Thai delicacies, or hearty Indian curries. The hardest part will be choosing which classes to take first, and which to keep in mind for your next remote team-building activity! 

Mix up some merry memories with a virtual mixology class

Many of us enjoy celebrating special occasions with a cocktail or two; if that's true of you and your team, why not get everyone in the holiday spirit by signing up for virtual cocktail-making classes? 

For example, our Craft Classic Cocktails at Home online class will guide you through the preparation of some classic cocktails such as Mai Tais and maple-infused Old Fashioneds. Not only will you learn some must-have mixing skills from a masterful professional mixologist, but you will also each receive a DIY cocktail kit to help you with your cocktail creation.

Imbibe the history of these classic drinks while learning how to prepare them yourselves – and enjoy the fruits of your success at the end. What could be a more enjoyable way to spend an online Christmas party than laughing, learning, and sipping cocktails you've made yourselves from scratch? 

Rest assured you'll learn some easy cocktails to make at home that you'll be able to recreate for your friends and loved ones at the other Christmas get-togethers you'll be going to. When it comes to team bonding activities, it's always an added bonus when you can pick up skills that will benefit the rest of your life outside of work, and cocktail making classes definitely give you that! All you have to do is set up a fun office poll to decide which delicious drinks to learn how to make (or take the reins yourself and pick your favorite!).

There are also plenty of other virtual mixology classes for you to choose from in case of a lockdown Christmas, so you and your colleagues can confer and decide which kind of cocktails you'd most like to make together. If you have a preference for tequila, you're all sure to enjoy our DIY Cocktails: Tequila Times class. Does Bourbon whiskey make your heart beat faster? Sample our DIY Cocktails: Bourbon Whiskey Drinks session for some sultry, smoky flavors that will perfectly complement your Christmas feast. 

Once your cocktail-making class is over, you and your team can keep the party going via Zoom, sipping the night away in style. To make things even more exciting, why not choose a fancy-dress theme for the evening. You may all be staying at home, but that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the fun and festive flair of getting all dressed up! 

As you can see, we have plenty of enjoyable online team-building activities that are guaranteed to make any virtual Christmas party a success, so take your pick and prepare for a seasonal celebration you won't forget in a hurry.
