Christmas traditions?
Show your support
My husband and I are going to merge both of our traditions together for our daughter. We're doing: - Christmas eve box with PJs, hot chocolate stick (when she's older) and a book - Watch a film on Christmas eve (Santa clause: the movie with Dudley Moore) with said hot chocolate, then read the book and bed - Stockings on Christmas morning followed by presents - Santa sack after Christmas dinner with bits from Santa (like annuals, small toys etc.) - Boxing day walk 😊
Watch the toy show together
Me and my partner are taking on traditions both our families done with us growing up! - choosing 1 bauble each year for the tree (as they get older let them choose themselves - it’ll definitely add a lot of colour to your tree!) 😂 - a bauble which you can open up; every year measure your LO with a piece of string and lock it inside, when they’re of an age to understand, you can show them how tall they were each Christmas! - A Christmas Day out as close to Christmas as we can get it - lights, a show, a market (things that really make you feel like Christmas is coming!) One thing we never did as children but would love to do with our LO is to visit a wish tree, choose something from there and get it for a child who isn’t as fortunate to teach our LO some values over the Christmas holiday.
Ohhh CAROLS BY CANDLELIGHT!! I go w my sisters or I invite a friend. I go to 3/4 local ones leading up to Xmas. There’s also a big state one in the city. He loves dancing to all the songs he knows. And then fireworks at the end of the night!
New matching pyjamas including the cat, duck eggs Benedict in the morning and we buy a couple of presents for the wish tree
