COVID-19 pandemic has affected millions of people worldwide. Unfortunately, some people have contracted the virus, which affects their emotions and outlook on life heavily even if some of them try to stay positive during these trying times. That is why it’s extremely important to reinforce that feeling of trying and staying positive for people who are suffering from the medical effects of the coronavirus.

If any of your friends, family members, or loved ones have contracted the virus, you want to let them know that you are there for them as they go through this experience. However, it can be hard to do so when you can’t go near someone who has the virus. Since you can’t send your thoughts through seeing them personally, you can consider giving them the following gifts that can truly make their day:

 

  1. An interesting book to read

A COVID-19 patient will quickly run out of things to keep their mind occupied. They will need to spend hours of rest to avoid the worsening of their condition, and doing the same thing every day can become boring and unexciting.

Choose an interesting book based on their personality, and give it to them as a way to keep their mind occupied. By doing so, you’ll give them a reason to spend their day, helping them stay positive, especially if they’re an avid reader.

 

  1. Sketchbooks or colouring books

Help a patient relieve their stress and anxiety as they fight their ailment by encouraging them to be artistic. If the recipient is an artist, they’ll surely feel a lot more positive since giving them a sketchbook is basically a way of saying, “Keep fighting! The world needs your art!”

Art is one of the greatest forms of self-expression. It can help your loved ones release the negative feelings they have as they try to overcome the virus. For those who are less artistic, try giving them colouring books, which will help them feel relaxed. Throw in some colouring supplies too in case they run out.

 

  1. Video games

Video games are among the most interactive and can be the most calming and entertaining way to keep your mind occupied. There are many different kinds of games to choose from and depending on their preference, it’s always possible to get a game that will surely keep them going.

Games can be story-driven, action-packed, or serene that gives off a calming vibe. There’s a wide variety of games that can fit the personalities of almost everyone. Additionally, games allow people to connect and interact with other people online.

If the patient is already a gamer, you can ask them specifically what game they might want to play, especially the newly released ones. If not, you can try to find games that will fit their personality and buy them the console that best suits their situation. The Nintendo Switch is a good starting point because of its dual functionality as a handheld device and a home console.

 

Conclusion

Everyone can feel down during these challenging times, especially COVID-19 patients. By sending them gifts, you’re giving not only something to keep them entertained but also your thoughts and feelings. Let them know that you care about them, and whatever you’re sending, don’t forget to send cards along and write a heartfelt message.
