Social activities are activities that involve communication and interaction with others. These are built into social systems such as work, school and culture. For example, a meeting or class is essentially a social activity. Due to the increased ability of people to work and attend school from the home, there is often a need to find additional activities. Likewise, people commonly seek social activities that align to their interests, hobbies, worldview or passions. People are inherently social such that social interaction tends to feel rewarding and intriguing. The following are common examples of social activities.
