Christmas is that season where families come together to create memories that last a lifetime. Among the twinkling lights and festive cheer, establishing unique traditions can add an extra layer of magic to this special time of year.
1. Advent Calendar Excitement
Start the countdown to Christmas with an Advent calendar. Whether it’s opening small doors each day or enjoying activities hidden in pockets, this daily ritual builds anticipation and excitement for the big day.
2. Family Ornament Crafting
Crafting ornaments together each year can be a gorgeous tradition. From handprints on ceramic baubles to homemade lolly pop stick snowflakes, these decorations become timeless treasures that adorn the tree, each holding a precious memory.
3. Cosy Christmas Movie Marathon
Gather around with blankets and snacks for a cosy Christmas movie marathon. From classics like "It’s a Wonderful Life" to newer favourites like "Elf" or "The Polar Express," this tradition guarantees laughter and bonding time. For snacks, why not choose POM-BEAR – these delicious teddy-shaped potato snacks have a light and crispy bite which melts in the mouth. All POM-BEAR snacks are made from top-quality ingredients, gluten-free and contain no artificial colours or flavours
4. Holiday Baking Extravaganza
Engage in a day of holiday baking! From gingerbread cookies to traditional fruitcakes or peppermint bark, let the aroma of baked goods fill your home while creating delicious treats to share.
5. Christmas Eve Box
Start a tradition of gifting a Christmas Eve box filled with new pyjamas, a holiday-themed book, hot cocoa mix, and a movie. It’s a delightful way to spend the evening before the big day.
6. Lights Tour Adventure
Take a tour around the neighbourhood or visit local areas renowned for their festive light displays. Bundle up in the car and immerse yourselves in the twinkling wonderland.
7. Giving Back as a Family
Embrace the spirit of giving by volunteering as a family. Whether it’s donating toys, serving meals at a shelter, or participating in a charitable cause, it teaches the true essence of the season—compassion and generosity.
8. Capture the Moments
Lastly, document these magical moments. Take photos, create scrapbooks, or write down favourite memories. These tangible treasures serve as reminders of the joy shared and the love that fills the holiday season.
It’s great to remember as a family that it’s not just about the gifts or the decorations but about the great moments spent together.
