It’s time to kick off your shoes, lift up your feet and relax – even though things might feel different this year, it’s finally holiday time! With so many things changing in 2020, at least there’s still one thing that’s stayed constant – your comfy couch and DStv’s selection of premium content.
If you need to take a break from reality and recover after a crazy year, just hop on your couch, and feel the stress melt away.
In keeping with the theme of relaxing, why not turn your home into a spa for the day? Try that new facial mask you’ve been saving for a special occasion and zone out for a moment. Get the kids to give you a mani and pedi. If you need help setting the mood, Jazz It Up on Mzansi Magic Music will create the perfect background sound. You can catch it on 21 December at 16:00 CAT on DStv Channel 321.
Once you’re feeling relaxed and ready for the festive season, it’s time to start thinking about your Christmas feast. Luckily, Jamie’s Easy Christmas Countdown will be hitting our screens from 21 December at 20:00 CAT on BBC Lifestyle, DStv Channel 174. Tune in for all the festive menu inspiration and cooking advice you need to make December in the kitchen a breeze. Festive gatherings will probably be smaller this year, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still eat delicious food!
Of course, it’s the holidays, and we should be letting loose every once in a while. You may not be able to go out clubbing, but you can always live vicariously through Bad Moms – a group of fed up mothers decide that they’re tired of being stressed and want to celebrate their freedom. Who knows, it may inspire you to put on your party shoes and turn your lounge into a dance zone. Follow the craziness on M-Net Movies 3, DStv Channel 107 on Sunday 20 December at 23:45 CAT.
Let’s not forget the kids these holidays! The Adventures of Paddington is sure to delight as Paddington shares a world of knowledge and adventure with the little ones as he tells all of his stories to Aunt Lucy. Even if your kids can’t travel the world right now, they can still continue adventuring weekdays at 08:40 CAT on Nick Jr., DStv Channel 307.
To keep them excited and on their toes, you can always switch it up with Dora the Explorer. Go on an adventure with Dora, Boots, and their friends as they discover a world unknown, weekdays at 08:55 CAT on Nicktoons, DStv Channel 308.
And if you’re looking to satisfy your travel bug and sense of adventure, try Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby. You’ll get to take a look at some of the world’s most amazing and lesser-known hotels with Giles Coren and Monica Galetti on BBC Lifestyle, DStv Channel 174 on Sunday, 20 December at 22:59 CAT. Armchair travel at its best!
