Many of us spend close to 2,000 hours a year at work. So here are some ideas on how to make this time at work a bit more fun and enjoyable.

1: Celebrate Every Employee Birthday and Milestone

You don’t need to plan extravagant parties to celebrate in style. Something as simple as a happy hour, an ice cream social, or a curated employee milestone box is all you need to inspire the smiles. Celebrations like these make team members feel more like family members. It creates an invaluable atmosphere of caring and support.

2: Eat Lunch Anywhere But at Your Desk

Team lunches represent the ultimate in work-appropriate fun. Bring your team together for a simple lunch that provides a double dose of nourishment from both laughter and delicious food. Eating is an absolute must-do for everyone. Using it as a foundation for fun is a realistic and sustainable way to keep the good times rolling month after month.
• Declare one day a month team lunch or team snack day
• Remind everybody to pack well or set up a Lunch Party with Confetti
• Gather, eat, and laugh
3: Start Every Meeting with a Little Fun

Start each meeting with a little fun to build a culture everyone wants to be a part of. Even just 5 minutes of jokes or games can be exactly what someone needs to have a much better day.
