Podcast Shownotes
Go Looking at Christmas Lights – Take the family around the city to look at all the beautiful lights. Pack some snacks and make a night of it. Google “Best Places to Look at Christmas Lights in [Your City]” if you are unsure where to go.
Watch Christmas Movies – Whether you watch the same movie every year or a different one, it’s great to have the family huddled up and watching something great like “Miracle on 34th Street” or, my personal favorite, “Die Hard”. Here is a list of Christmas Movies available at Walmart.
Go Christmas Caroling – Print the lyrics to a few favorite Christmas Tunes and hit the streets in your neighborhood. Knock on the door and belt out an old standard.
Decorate Your Tree – Make this a big deal with each member of the family helping to put the tree up and get it decorated.
Make Christmas Ornaments – Gather the family around the kitchen table for an arts & crafts session. You can take a look here for some ideas or try Dian’s Peppermint Ornaments.
Decorate Christmas Cookies/Cookie Exchange – Sugar Cookie are super simple to make and then everyone can decorate their own or you can make enough to share with others
Christmas Breakfast – Make a special breakfast every Christmas. It can be Christmas Pancakes, Monkey Bread, a Coffee Cake or whatever your family will enjoy. Just make it out of the ordinary and special.
Read the Christmas Story – Read the Bible passage found in Luke 2:1-20. It’s a great reminder of why we celebrate.
