2020 has taken us all on a roller coaster of emotions, and with the holiday season upon us, we’re all looking for ways to spread cheer and good tidings. Don’t worry, there are some great Christmas traditions that will have you feeling merry and bright in no time!

Make Homemade Hot Cocoa

If you’ve been on social media recently, it’s likely that you’ve seen videos of everyone making hot cocoa bombs that release a ton of chocolaty goodness when they are submerged in warm milk. Why not make your own recipe full of all your favorite goodies. Check out this video as a great reference on how to make your own hot cocoa bombs.

Listen to a Christmas Tale

Gather the family to bake cookies or work on a holiday craft together while listening to something a little more entertaining than the usual Christmas tunes. Put on the audio version of A Christmas Carol or create a playlist of Christmas themed stories being read aloud on YouTube. They have a great selection, and you can even find How the Grinch Stole Christmas being read by Keith Morrison.

Buy Matching Pajamas or Make Matching Christmas Sweaters

A great way to stay connected with your loved ones who can’t be with you this year is to put on a matching outfit and hop on a video call with one another. There are all kinds of matching pajama sets being sold in stores, but you can also buy a plain sweater and decorate it in matching styles for a unique spin on the holiday tradition.

Secret Santa, Anyone?

If you are trying to save a little money this year and don’t want to buy a present for everyone on your list, suggest a Secret Santa gift exchange with a spending limit of $20. It will easily cut down the number of people to buy for and comes with a fun guessing game at the end.

Holiday lights are going up around town, and one of the best ways to get into the spirit of the season is to go and look at all of the decorations. Take your family and drive around some of the streets in the area and pick out the houses with the best Christmas decorations!
