Learn how to bake up a piping hot batch of positivity! 

If you and your staff have never tried cooking as a team-building activity before, then it's about time you gave it a go! With this alluring array of online cooking classes, your team can whip up a gourmet-style meal in no time, with the guided step-by-step of an experienced chef. If baking is more your jam, you can find a class to teach everyone how to make French macarons or make hand-painted masterpieces with pre-baked cookies. Along the way, your team can swap stories, laugh, joke, and support each other in this delicious new culinary venture. 

These cooking classes are also some of the most popular Zoom ice breakers and for good reason. Not only are they fun-filled and engaging, but they also teach your team some very useful new skills. The best part of all is the taste testing you get to do at the end when your culinary work is complete!

Whichever virtual team building class you choose, you and your colleagues will each receive a well-stocked DIY cooking kit delivered to your doors beforehand. This kit will include the various ingredients necessary to concoct your chosen delicacy, giving you an extra boost of confidence before you've even begun. Who knows, your WFH colleagues may be so inspired by their online cooking workshop that they beg you to arrange more classes in the future. Before you know it, you'll each be confident enough in the kitchen to whip up your very own festive feasts, impressing friends and family alike. 

Say 'Cheers!' with virtual cocktail making classes

One of the worst things about having to work from home is probably having to miss out on those after-work drinks. Thanks to online cocktail making classes, you can resurrect that enjoyable activity and raise your glasses once again! Not only that, you will get to learn some thrilling new mixology skills from talented mixologists across the country. 

Check out our list of virtual classes with your team to decide which one you'd most like to try. While the classics never go out of style, you may want to sample some more exotic flavors, with a customized session and craft kits with all the ingredients that are sent to everyone's door. No matter which of these online team-building activities you choose, you and your co-workers will have a blast, learning how to make easy cocktails at home and toasting to your accomplishments when you've completed the class. Many of our virtual cocktail making classes are adaptable for non-drinkers too, so everyone is included in all that shaking, muddling, and mixing fun.

Raise those positive vibes with some plant life 

A great way to help boost your remote team's workplace wellbeing is by encouraging them to welcome some plants into their homes. It’s no secret that there are many positive impacts of surrounding yourself with plants. Not only do they strengthen our physical and mental health, but they have also been shown to improve workplace performance and help people focus better on their tasks. 

Can't wait to harvest some of that powerful plant-based potential for yourself and your team? Why not sign up for some of these botanical-themed Zoom activities, such as make a terrarium at home? This enchanting two-hour session will have you and your staff creating their own miniature gardens to enjoy and will give you invaluable tips on the right plants and materials to use. Many of these materials come to you courtesy of DIY kits, so you won't have to stress about sourcing them yourselves.  

By the time you and your WFH colleagues have finished your workshop, you will each have a beautiful little living masterpiece to admire and enjoy, and we're sure it won't be long before your terrariums start making a positive difference to your remote workers.

With online team-building activities available across America, there really is no excuse to be out of touch with your employees and colleagues. Choose from a wide range of virtual workshops for remote teams and make working from home as fun and interactive as possible.a
