Hey there, friends! During these times of self-isolation, Jennifer Garner decided to bring some laughter into our lives. She posted a hilarious video on Instagram showing herself tackling three challenges to help fight the coronavirus pandemic. "I’ve been challenged to [do] a lot of things so I’m going to try and do them all," the beloved actress said in the clip she shared on Tuesday, March 24. Let’s take a closer look at what she did!
Challenge Number One: Push-Ups for a Good Cause
First things first, Jen kicked things off with a series of push-ups. She didn't just stop there, though. Once she completed the task, the 47-year-old star held up a sign that read, ‘#IStayHomeFor: My Parents, Victor Garber [and] doctors and nurses.’ It was a heartfelt nod to those who inspire her to stay safe during these challenging times. And let’s not forget, she didn’t miss a beat. After showcasing her sign, she immediately moved on to her next challenge.
Handwashing Like a Pro
Next up, Jennifer demonstrated proper hand hygiene. She washed her hands until they sparkled, proving that cleanliness is key in the fight against the pandemic. But wait, there’s more! After ensuring her hands were squeaky clean, she took a selfie for professional dancer Tiler Peck. The excitement was palpable as she shouted with joy, adding a touch of fun to the serious moment.

Mom Life in Quarantine: The Joys and Challenges
Of course, Jen isn’t just a viral video sensation; she’s also navigating life in quarantine with her family. While she’s making the best of her time at home, one thing is keeping her up at night: how her parents, William and Patricia Garner, are handling the pandemic. In a lighthearted chat with Jimmy Fallon during the home edition of his show on Thursday, March 19, she joked about their approach. "The hard things are teens, early 20s people, and my parents. My parents are the hard ones,” she shared. "I’m like, ‘Dad, mom, the world is shut down to keep you safe.’ And they’re like, ‘We think we’re going to go to Sam’s Warehouse.’ Stay home, you have to stay home!"
Parenting During a Pandemic
On the bright side, Jennifer’s kids—Violet, 14, Seraphina, 11, and Samuel, 8, whom she shares with ex-husband Ben Affleck—are handling the situation well. "I think I have the perfect age kids for this," Jennifer laughed. "Because they’re big enough to understand and to have the conversations. 'Like, we’re built for challenge, we can do this, we’re a tough team. Let’s learn about a vacuum cleaner.' But they’re not so big that they’re just like, 'Well, I don’t care. I’m going to go.’" It sounds like the Garner household is finding ways to stay positive and productive during these uncertain times.
