National Have Fun at Work Day is an opportunity to bond with coworkers, create a positive atmosphere, and reduce stress. Here are some ideas you can use to get started:

--Plan a game night with coworkers. Plenty of fun options exist on Funko.com. Working the night shift? The Five Nights at Freddy’s™ characters might keep you company with a board game. Or, host a talent show/game night with Funko’s Disney-Pixar Toy Story: Talent Show Board Game.

--Show off your favorite fandom at work with a Funko Pop! Tee or Loungefly accessory. Our Pop! & Tee combinations are a great way to celebrate favorite fandoms, such as Anime. Loungefly mini backpacks and other accessories are fantastic ways to stay in character—even at work.

--Hold an impromptu Pop! Yourself party. Go online and to get the party started. Choose your look, your accessories, your pets, and create your very own vinyl figure Pop! of yourself, your family, your friends, or your coworkers.

--Pack a fun lunch or grab coffee or a snack with your work team.

--Go for a walk as a team.

--Play trivia or icebreaker games to get to know your coworkers better.
