The Family Bed, Stress Relief For A Complex Time

Fred’s Beds, Your Cumming Mattress Store Shares, The Family Bed and Quarantine

In this time of the coronavirus outbreak, sleeping on your bed at night may not be the most enjoyable thing to do. There’s nothing like a dark, quiet room to send your worried mind down a rabbit hole of stress and anxiety about this pandemic. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. Besides being a place of rest, your bed can be the center of your family to share time during the home quarantine. Fred’s Beds, your very own mattress store in Cumming, is sharing a few ways to make your bed a stress relief for a complex time. 

Tips to Enjoying Your Family Bed 

Breakfast in bed: There’s no better way to start your day than by having breakfast in bed. Your bed is so much more comfortable than sitting at the dining room table. Why wait until Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day? Instead of being stuck in traffic driving to work or taking the kids to school, you now have a little extra time for a sophisticated egg toast or some heartwarming croissants. Yes, there might be crumbs, but nothing beats delicious, warm food in your cozy bed.

 Work from bed: Make yourself a cup of coffee and prop yourself against the pillows, you’re ready to chase the work deadlines from your bed. Thanks to telecommuting, many of us have the privilege to get our work done online from our laptop, which some embrace by becoming work-from-bedders. If you happen to be one, make sure that you have proper back support, a sturdy surface, and a spill-proof cup or bottle. (because no one likes coffee stains!) 

Game nights: Engaging your family in a fun activity like game night helps strengthen the family bond. It’s even better to spend quality game time in the comfort of your bed. Here are some fun games that we’d like to suggest: 

• Charades 
• Monopoly 
• Kids Against Humanity 
• Trivia 
• Uno 
• Telephone 

Movie nights: Quality family time can also come in the form of movie nights. What’s not to love about movie nights? Cuddling with your kids while watching an old cartoon that you love or a new family just released on Netflix. Make it fun by putting on a new sheet that matches the movie theme or letting your kids dress as the main movie character. Movie nights are fun, but even more when it is in the comfort of your family bed.

 Reading in bed: After a long day, some people love to have reading time in their bedtime ritual. Since electronic gadgets negatively affect your sleep, it’s best to pick up an old-fashioned hardcover book. Since it’s easier sitting up than laying down while reading, investing in a bed wedge pillow to protect your back and neck is not a bad idea. Also, go for fiction since it’s more relaxing and requires less brainpower than non-fiction.
