15 Family Christmas Activities to remember the meaning of Christmas #Christmas #traditions
 
 

Hi all! Rachel from {i love} my disorganized life here. Can you believe it's December already? Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year. Growing up, I can recall the glow of the Christmas lights outside my bedroom window, the decorated Christmas tree in the living room, the Hershey's Kisses in the candy dish, holding hands & encircling the tree with my sister and cousins while singing Christmas carols. I don't know about you, but with all the baking, shopping, decorating and gatherings, I tend to forget to slow down and truly enjoy the holiday season. To help you {and me!} remember the true meaning of Christmas, {which, to me, is compassion, hope, love & peace}, I've compiled a list of 15 family Christmas activities that are fun and meaningful to enjoy with your family and friends.

  1. Drive around and look at Christmas lights
  2. Take dog/cat treats to an animal shelter
  3. Take books to a children’s hospital
  4. Visit a retirement/nursing home
  5. Make dinner for families at a Ronald McDonald House
  6. Volunteer at a homeless shelter
  7. Go to church/mass
  8. Read Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’
  9. Adopt a family
  10. Have each family member write a short paragraph for a family year-end letter
  11. Take a family photo
  12. Have appetizers for dinner on Christmas Eve with your kids {no major cooking involved!}
  13. Read the Christmas story from Luke 2:1-20
  14. Take baked goods to your local fire station
  15. Open a ‘family’ gift on Christmas Eve {like a game everyone can play that night}

What other family Christmas activities can you think of? I'd love to hear your suggestions!

    I love that these are all so service orientated and that you are doing them as a family. It's so important to care and give and not just do fun things all season.
