Here’s what you should do.

1.  Designate a leader – The “Techie” of the family is best for doing this.

2. Determine the platform –  Zoom, WhatsApp, Skype, ….

3. Test before the event – Run a short meeting with some members of the family or friends. Just to make sure every one knows how to use the platform and their device with it.

4.  Test the Wi-Fi location. Make sure that Wi-Fi works in the location of the home where they will be joining the virtual event. Living room, kitchen ….

5. Set a time for the event.

6. Set a theme for the event, present opening, dinner, cookie making.

Enjoy ….and Happy Holidays …
