When it comes to christmas activities, there’s something for every family’s style, from cozy movie nights to competitive holiday games. And the best part is that they can all be done from the comfort of your own home.
No matter how many errands you have to run or tasks on your to-do list, turning them into a festive experience is the easiest way to get everyone in the spirit this season. Whether it’s singing holiday songs, playing this fun game with the whole family or making this mason jar snow globe, you can make even the most mundane tasks feel merry and bright.
If you live in an area that gets cold enough, bring the family outside and hit up your local ice skating rink. This classic winter activity is especially fun if you all dress up, maybe in a theme or in ugly Christmas sweaters, and snap a group photo for your Christmas card.
While you’re at it, check with your city and see if they host a holiday lights display. You can also make your own by going on a family walk to see your neighbors’ displays and creating a list of your favorites.
Another great way to spread the holiday spirit is by hosting a community Christmas party at your house. You can ask your kids’ teachers, babysitters or even your favorite cashier to join you and your family for a day of crafts, games and treats. You can also ask your guests to bring gently used toys to donate to children in need (Money Crashers has a good list).
