2. Halloween Fun:

  • Halloween is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate with your team. Encourage employees to come to the office in costume or host a virtual costume contest via Zoom.
  • For a creative twist, organize a pumpkin carving contest, even if it's done virtually. It's a fun and interactive way to bring employees together, sparking conversations while carving pumpkins.

3. Thanksgiving Turkey Trot or Marathon:

  • Promote an active and healthy lifestyle by encouraging your team to participate in a Turkey Trot or marathon around Thanksgiving.
