Stay at Home Entertainment

Most of us are staying pretty close to home these days. A big Thank You to all of you who are doing your part to protect your family and our communities!


For those of us home, some of us are with our families, some of us are alone. Some of us have small children or teenagers who are missing their friends, others need a breather on their own.


It is a challenging time for many of us.


Entertainment offers a welcome distraction. In light of the current crisis, many new opportunities have become available and many are sharing some amazing resources. I tried to capture some of these opportunities below. If you have other things to offer, please share them in the comments below.

All stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet.
