While nothing beats an IRL birthday celebration, providing far away family and friends the chance to attend the party is a wonderful alternative. You can host a video chat over Zoom, Skype, Facebook Messenger, or whatever video platform you prefer. Just make sure everyone knows how to connect and use it — some of your guests might not be used to video chats just yet, so a before-party practice run might be required. Most people have been sitting around in sweatpants for a few weeks now, and are likely being taunted by their fancier clothes and shoes. Give your guests the chance to dress up with a theme party.
