Answer:
what i dont understand
As we face further time spent separated from our friends and loved ones thanks to the lockdown, plenty of people will be faced with the dilemma of how to celebrate birthdays from a distance. Whether you or someone you love is set to mark the occasion over the next couple of weeks, it can be difficult to work out exactly how to make the day feel special during this strange time.
It’s safe to say that having your birthday in the middle of a global pandemic is rather unfortunate. But despite all the terrible things going on at the moment, it’s only normal that many of us will want to make our friends’ or family members’ birthdays as wonderful as possible, even if we’re unable to celebrate with them physically.

Gifts for friends in isolation: 6 thoughtful birthday presents to send in lockdown
So without further ado, here’s Stylist’s guide to celebrating a loved one’s birthday during lockdown. From giving them a creative gift to get them through quarantine to having a virtual drink, these simple ideas are a great way to make sure this one’s a birthday to remember.
And if you’re looking for some gift inspiration, check out our guide to the thoughtful birthday gift ideas you can send in the post.
1. Have a (virtual) house party
Forget having a drink over Zoom – viral video chat app Houseparty allows you to have a virtual party with a group of your friends.
As well as giving you the space to chat and hangout with whoever you like, Houseparty offers a range of in-app activities to do with your friends, including ‘Heads Up!’ and trivia. You can also share your screen with the people on your call, making it super easy to watch films or TV programmes together as you celebrate.
On top of that, there are plenty of online activities you can do together. From online escape rooms to virtual pub quizzes, you’ll be spoilt for choice. You could even host your own virtual pub quiz, and theme it around the birthday girl or boy!
2. Pick out a special card
While in “normal” times you might not care too much about birthday cards, in the current situation something as simple as a friendly message is sure to make a difference.
Oliver Bonas have a great selection of cards by different designers which you can currently order online, or you can use a card delivery service like Thortful (who have now released a fabulous collection of isolation and quarantine-themed cards) to have the card sent straight to a friend with the message already printed inside. .
3. Send them a boredom buster
Staying at home all the time is sure to get boring pretty quick, so give your friend the gift of distraction in the form of a craft kit. Not only will it break up the endless Netflix bingeing sessions which will inevitably form most of their life now, it’ll keep them busy for a considerable time.

4. Invest in a delivery-friendly gift
Lucky for us, there are plenty of gifts you can send through the post these days to suit every type of person.
You could also give them the gift that keeps on giving and pay for a subscription box to be delivered to their house every month. There truly is something for everyone out there – just take Bloombox Club’s houseplant subscription.
If you’re looking to give them a subscription they’ll be able to use during quarantine, premium art kit subscription service Artful sends out a box curated by a featured artist as soon as you register, and will send your friend a new set in the post every three months.
5. Make plans for when lockdown is over
One of the worst bits of celebrating a birthday in lockdown is not being able to see all your friends and family, so doing something that shows you understand how your friend feels is important.
None of us knows when the coronavirus pandemic is going to end, but reassuring your friend that you’ll celebrate with them when lockdown is over will give them something to look forward to throughout this uncertain period.
6. Food glorious food
If there’s one thing sure to brighten someone’s mood while they’re in lockdown, it’s a delivery of tasty snacks.
Thanks to a new delivery service from M&S, you can now send your family or loved one a special ‘cake hamper’ to mark their special day. This Happy Birthday Surprise Gift Box currently available on their website comes with a chocolate cake, a box of swiss chocolates and a bottle of prosecco, all for £30.
