Make holiday ornaments
All it takes is a trip to the craft store for some clear ornaments and paints to create one-of-kind decorations that you may want to showcase on the holiday tree for years to come. Make some extras to share with the grandparents, too.
See the lights
Although there are many outstanding options for viewing professional holiday light shows, some of the most entertaining are those found in local neighborhoods. Use social media to locate some popular spots or just hop in the car with the kids for a tour of the dazzling displays near you.
Host a movie marathon
Step out into nature
A sunny winter day is ideal for a visit to a local or state park trail for a brisk walk through the woods. The leafless trees offer a unique view of the landscape and an opportunity to spot some furry friends that may remain hidden during other times of the year.
What will bring your family together this holiday season? Whether it’s an old favorite like baking cookies or your first family trip to an outdoor rink, the holidays offer a special opportunity to spend extra time with those who matter most. You may even create some new family traditions.
