It is December! I wait all year for this time. There is just something about this holiday season that makes everything better and now that Patrick is a little older, it is so fun to share all of our traditions and even create some new ones. He has loved playing by the christmas tree and all the glittery ornaments. We have already been busy wrapping presents and we even started our advent calendar this morning.
I found this burlap garland at a local craft store and knew I had to have it. Inside every pocket is a little treat and an activity. The activities are simple and mostly for Patrick, but it will be fun to share these moments with him. We will be heading to Washington for the holidays so I only put in 15 activities.
Here are what we are going to do:
Read a Christmas book
Make a Christmas card
Facetime with Grammie and Papa
Take a Christmas family photo
Go see Santa
Take cookies to our neighbors
Watch A Charlie Brown Christmas
Drive to see Christmas lights
Make a gingerbread house
Color a Christmas picture
Drink eggnog
Tie jingle bells to Patricks shoes
Watch How The Grinch Stole Christmas
Write letters to Santa
Go Christmas Shopping
I hope that you have a great holiday season, and I would love to hear what your traditions are? Any great advent calendar ideas?
