Are you looking for new ways to add meaning to your holidays?
Show your thankful spirit by writing 2 or 3 thank you cards and mailing them to people that have helped you over the last year.
Celebrate St. Nicholas Day on December 6th. For those that may not know about this one, kids leave their shoes outside their bedroom doors and St. Nicholas stops by during the night, leaving kids a small treat. For an added twist, St. Nicholas could leave older kids a craft they can complete and then give to someone.
Start a family tradition. They don’t have to be elaborate- and you’re more likely to continue them if they’re not. We like to give our kids new pajamas every Christmas eve so we know they’ll look good for photos the next morning. Pick your favorite thing to create your own tradition: maybe silly slippers or ugly holiday sweaters. Or make it a tradition that everyone gets a movie DVD or a book.
