• Virtually go to the Zoo! The Cincinnati Zoo is hosting live events every day at 3pm on their Facebook Live. Check out the page here

• Learn a language. The Duolingo app is free and has more than 30 language courses. While you won’t become fluent with the app it is a great way to start!
• Attend the Metropolitan Opera during their nightly streams
• You can also visit museums on Google Arts and Culture. MoMA in New York City and Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam
