12 Festive Christmas Activities The Whole Family Will Love
1. Go Christmas Tree Shopping
The very first thing on the list may seem obvious but sometimes time flys by and schedules don’t work. So try to plan it out with everyone’s schedule to go pick out the tree together.
2. Decorate Your Tree Together
If you are buying a Christmas tree together, then you’re going to have to decorate it!
3. Break Out The Board Games
Board games may seem so 2000s but they are the perfect way to get the whole family together without their phones. Plus you can have a bet that the person that loses has to do the dishes after Christmas dinner.
4. Build a Snowman
Granted this idea only works if it snows around you so I’m hoping it does.
So go outside, grab some snow, and build a snowman that will stay up as long as the snow does.
5. Have a Gingerbread Contest
If your family can get competitive then have a gingerbread decoration contest with everyone and see who has the best.
If your family is not competitive, then have everyone decorate it together!

I have so many good memories of waking up during Christmas break to the smell of bacon and my dad preparing a breakfast feast. It’s a memory I look back on many nights – you can to.
You can make it alone or wake everyone up to help cook everything!
8. Have a Karaoke Night
Anyone can have a karaoke night with a quick YouTube search and a fake microphone.
9. Break out The Hot Chocolate
Something needs to be prepared with the cookies! So break out the hot coco mix and Christmas mugs for this idea.
10. Go See The Christmas Lights
There are so many places that set up Christmas nights that you are able to drive by. We have one about 15 minutes by our house and it’s a hit every year!
