Why Remote Teams Love DIY Terrarium Kits

As remote and hybrid work continue to grow, companies are finding new ways to keep employees connected beyond video meetings. While virtual happy hours and online games were once popular, many organizations are now choosing interactive experiences that employees can enjoy together from anywhere.

DIY Terrarium Kits have become a favorite because they combine creativity, nature, and team building into one memorable event.

A Shared Experience, Wherever You Are

Each participant receives a complete DIY Terrarium Kit delivered directly to their home before the event.

During the virtual workshop, everyone builds their miniature ecosystem together while following a live instructor. Even though employees may be spread across different cities or states, they share the same creative experience in real time.

What's Included?

Our DIY Terrarium Kits include everything participants need to build a healthy ecosystem:

  • Glass terrarium
  • LECA drainage layer
  • Activated charcoal
  • Premium terrarium soil
  • Tropical plants
  • Live moss
  • Decorative stones
  • Miniature décor
  • Terrarium tools
  • Step-by-step instructions

No additional supplies are required, making setup simple for every participant.

Why Remote Teams Enjoy It

Unlike many virtual activities, terrarium workshops keep everyone actively engaged from start to finish.

Participants have the opportunity to:

  • Learn something new
  • Build with their hands
  • Ask questions throughout the class
  • Personalize their design
  • Share their finished terrariums with teammates

Every project is unique, creating natural conversation and encouraging interaction throughout the event.

A Wellness Experience That Lasts

One of the biggest advantages of a DIY terrarium workshop is that the experience continues after the meeting ends.

Participants leave with a living ecosystem that can brighten their home office while serving as a lasting reminder of the event and their team.

Perfect for Remote and Hybrid Companies

Virtual terrarium workshops are ideal for:

  • Remote teams
  • Hybrid workplaces
  • Employee appreciation events
  • New hire onboarding
  • Client appreciation gifts
  • Holiday celebrations
  • Company retreats

Whether your team includes 10 employees or hundreds, DIY Terrarium Kits provide an engaging experience that everyone can enjoy.

More Than a Virtual Workshop

The best virtual events don't just fill an hour on the calendar—they create meaningful moments that bring people together.

A DIY Terrarium Kit transforms an online meeting into a collaborative experience where employees can relax, create, and reconnect with one another while taking home a miniature ecosystem they'll enjoy for years.
