PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — Home for the holidays? We all are! Whether you're spreading the love with rainbows, social distancing a birthday celebration, or Zoom-ing your Seder, "hop" on over to our KYW To-Do List. Here's our recommendations for your holiday weekend, indoors.

Easter 

If you’re worried about missing Easter Sunday, don't fret. Take to technology: many churches are livestreaming their services, and get the family together for a multichat afterwards. Have an easter egg hunt around the house, or in your front or backyard. If you're lucky, you might spot the Easter bunny hopping through your neighborhood.

Or, maybe now is the perfect time to start a new tradition!

 

Fun for the family

As many of us are likely going on daily walks around our respective neighborhoods, you may notice rainbow pictures posted on windows like "We're all in this together," "Stay strong," and "Hang in there." Become part of the Facebook group called One Philly Art behind the effort to make art, with a different theme each week. 

Through April 17, The Museum of the American Revolution museum’s spring break programming is coming to you  online. Included are cooking classes and Q&A sessions with curators and historians. 

And when the kids are starting to get hungry, grab a DIY pizza kit from SliCE for $10 for some interactive food fun the whole family can enjoy.

 

Stay active

Add some Merrill Reese commentary to your day-to-day routines. Submit a video to the Eagles for the chance to have the legendary voice of the Philadelphia Eagles do a play-by-play.

With gyms and fitness studios closed around the city, many are bringing classes online. Explore classes at City Fitness, Tuck Barre & Yoga, Unite Fitness and more.

Celebrations

Don’t fear, April birthdays: we're still celebrating you. One 11-year-old in South Philadelphia saw her whole neighborhood make it to their stoops and wish her a happy birthday. An 18-year-old had neighbors drive by with balloons and even confetti. A family celebrating their daughter's bat mitzvah held it over Zoom, and the 13-year-old said it “turned out really good.”
