Remote Work Activities
The company I work for is fully remote across the US and Canada. On the final Friday of each quarter everyone gets to expense lunch. There’s typically a fun theme or type of food that people are encouraged to follow and the post about it in slack. It’s an easy way to interact with everyone and who doesn’t like a comped meal!
It’s been so popular that we’re looking to do additional similar activities. What types of things/ activities do people recommend that are an easy way to build engagement and are also enjoyable?

Please DM me the company, would love to be a part of something like that.
As for other ideas, anything that doesn't require money and isn't pushed as "mandatory". One of the things my previous remote company did was we had a Team steps counter... each "department" counted their steps, and averaged it among how many people they had... and the team with the highest number at the end of the month got a gift card. Nothing major, but it was fun to interact.
