People say it’s impossible to sing well in groups on videoconference calls because of delays. Prove people wrong. Let’s see at least 4 people singing 30 seconds of “Don’t Stand So Close to Me” by The Police on a videoconference call. It must be perfectly harmonized and synchronized!

GISH Play-at-Home Round 1 – Item 4 – Pet Special Activity
Normally, your pet is NEVER allowed to do this under ANY circumstances. But, of course, these are NOT normal times.
GISH Play-at-Home Round 1 – Item 3 – Family Ugly Sweater Videoconference
One of the best things about family is the way they accept you as you are (mostly), because of the threads that connect you. Prove it: videoconference with your entire family (extended or chosen family is welcome). Everyone must be wearing the ugliest shirt or sweater they have – the more outrageous the better. Send us your family group photo.
GISH Play-at-Home Round 1 – Item 2 – Grandparent Skill over FaceTime
SIDE-BY-SIDE. What’s something you’ve always wished you could do, but never bothered to learn that your grandparent knows how to do? Can your grandfather crochet? Can your grandmother bake bread? Have a facetime call with him or her and have them teach you this skill. Screengrab your conversation and the finished product in two side-by-side images.

IMAGE. Craft your own talisman for chillaxation.
IMAGE. Figure out what Misha’s REAL first job was… & provide “evidence.”

GISHMAS 2019 – Item 19 – Krampus Carol
When it comes to catchy, cheerful classic Christmas carols, Krampus is overlooked. Fix this egregious oversight with a catchy Krampus tune.
